How to remove static electricity from cars in winter

Static electricity is mostly generated when the weather is relatively dry, especially in winter when it is more obvious. However, we must not ignore this matter, because many times in some occasions, the occurrence of static electricity may inadvertently pose a threat to our health. For example, when driving, we also need to pay attention to removing static electricity. The following is a method of removing static electricity from cars in winter.

The air is dry in winter, and it is easy for your car to generate "static electricity". Here are some good solutions for car owners. Generally speaking, if you get shocked when opening the car door, it is mainly because you are wearing synthetic clothes or rubber-soled shoes, and if you get shocked when getting out of the car, it is because the car tires are also insulators. When driving at high speeds, the friction between the car body and the dry air will generate static electricity that cannot be released. People who often deal with cars must be able to understand the severity of car static electricity. It not only brings inconvenience to driving and riding, but may also cause accidents. The methods to eliminate static electricity in cars include installing air static dischargers, chain static dischargers and applying anti-static wax. The following solutions are available for reference:

First, pay attention to the configuration of interior fiber materials. The friction of fiber fabrics is an important source of static electricity in cars, especially chemical fiber products, which are more likely to be electrified by friction. Therefore, when choosing seat covers, seat cushions, floor mats and other items, it is recommended to use genuine leather, wool or pure cotton products.

Second, pay attention to the selection of car wax. Car wax has anti-static effect, but different types of car wax have different anti-static capabilities. If your car is prone to static electricity, you may wish to use a special anti-static car wax, the effect will be more obvious.

Third, pay attention to the use of electrostatic dischargers. There are two types of electrostatic dischargers, one is air electrostatic discharger and the other is chain discharger. It is best to use these two types of dischargers in combination.

There are two simple methods that can alleviate the annoyance of being "electrocuted" when getting on and off the bus to a certain extent. That is, before getting in the car, take the key and touch the surrounding iron railings or other things connected to the ground. However, if the current is strong enough, you will still feel it, but because the contact area between the hand and the key is relatively large, the current per unit area will not be so strong, so it will not hurt much (this method does not apply to remote control keys). When getting out of the car, push the side glass of the door instead of the metal frame to close the door, because the glass is insulated and not easily electrocuted. However, be careful with the force to avoid damaging the glass.

If you have been troubled by the problem of static electricity, you might as well try the methods introduced above. For example, when it comes to the tools, seat covers or cushions used in the car, you should pay attention to choosing the right ones. These are also some small tips in life that everyone can do.
