FR4 (Flame Retardant 4) is a glass fiber reinforced four-layer epoxy resin composite material with flame retardant properties. It is a common insulating material widely used in the electronics industry, especially in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards (PCBs). FR4 materials are typically made by laminating multiple layers of fiberglass cloth, coating epoxy resin between each layer, and then thermally curing them under high temperatures and pressures.
FR4 anti-static board is specially processed on the basis of FR4 material to have anti-static properties. The surface coating of anti-static panels usually includes a layer of material with better conductivity to prevent the accumulation and release of static electricity.
The main differences are outlined below:
Generally speaking, FR4 anti-static boards are based on ordinary FR4 substrates and add a layer with better conductivity to provide more professional anti-static performance. The choice of which material to use often depends on the specific application and needs.
