Abstract

Research on ESD ignition hazards of textiles is important for the safety of astronauts. The likelihood of ESD ignitions depends on the environment and different models used to simulate ESD events. Experiment shows that simulated ESD event according to the machine model is most likely to ignite the clothing and the minimum energy to ignite the samples is 4.8 mJ in pure oxygen environment.
