【The owner's family car knowledge】I believe that many friends, especially those in the north, will be "violated" by static electricity every day in the dry seasons of winter and spring. Although static electricity won't cause us any big troubles, it's uncomfortable to always scare you so "pop, pop...". How can we avoid being "electric" in such a dry season? I believe that after reading the following article, you will definitely help you solve the problem of "over-electricity" and let you refuse to be "electric" from now on!

I believe that after reading the following article, you will definitely help you solve the problem of "over-electricity" and let you refuse to be "electric" from now on!
scene one:
Those who were about to drive, just listened to the two sounds of "pop, pop" at the moment their hand touched the door frame, and then quickly retracted their hands without asking for "excessive power".
In the situation just now, he was ready to open the door again, but this time he touched the door with the back of his hand first, and opened the door when he confirmed that there was no static electricity.
Scene two:
Suddenly I was about to go out. The moment I took out the key and touched the car door, there were two "pops" again. I saw some sparks on the contact point between the key and the car door, and it was "overcharged" again...
Scene three:
After getting to the place, in order to avoid "overpowering" and getting off the car again, I used a more alternative way of closing the door. I lifted my foot and kicked the door hard, completely ignoring the expensive sneakers I bought in Hong Kong for 50 yuan to paint the car. Coming of wear and tear.
Many of the above scenes may have been encountered by many of my friends. So how did it happen after being electrified? There are two main reasons for the generation of static electricity in a car. One is that the human body is charged before it comes into contact with the car, so contact with the car naturally requires Discharge, and the amount of charge varies according to the constitution of the human body. Some human bodies have special constitutions and are easy to store static electricity generated by friction, and they must be discharged when they come in contact with anything. On the other hand, the dust in the air rubs against the metal surface of the car body to generate electricity. When a person touches the car, a discharge phenomenon occurs.
Is car static electricity harmful to human body?
Although the power of the human body and the car is limited, the voltage is not enough to cause too serious consequences for the car and the person, but even a very small current can make people feel uncomfortable. In severe cases, static electricity can cause headaches and insomnia. Symptoms such as irritability and restlessness can even cause various cardiovascular diseases, such as arrhythmia, tachycardia, premature beats, and atrial fibrillation.
How do we avoid the occurrence of being "over-charged"? The following methods can reduce the chance of occurrence of static electricity.
starting from myself
Try to wear pure cotton clothes, because pure cotton clothes are not easy to generate static electricity. Of course, if you wear chemical fiber clothes, you can use fabric softener when washing, which can also reduce part of the static electricity. In addition, we ourselves drink plenty of water and keep the skin moist to avoid static electricity, because static electricity does not happen on its own in a humid state.
Eliminate static electricity from the human body before driving.
Wash your hands before driving, or wipe your hands on the wall to eliminate static electricity. Of course, if you are limited by the conditions, you can also pat the car with your hands and then open the door after the power is discharged. Compared with the fingers touching the surface of the car, attaching your hands directly can expand the contact area and reduce the discomfort caused by the discharge.
Increasing the humidity in the car can reduce the occurrence of static electricity
On the vehicle side, there are the following points, spread wet towels on the dashboard. In the dry season, put a wet towel on the dashboard to increase the humidity in the car, or use a sprayer to spray some water in the car regularly, which can also increase the humidity in the car and reduce the generation of static electricity in the car. If conditions permit, install an on-board humidifier in the car and spray it into the car regularly to prevent static electricity.
In addition, in winter and spring, many people like to use the internal circulation hot air when driving, which will make the already dry car less able to store moisture and cause static electricity. Therefore, it is recommended to leave the window half open.
In addition to the above few cost-free solutions to static electricity, there are many products on the market that specifically eliminate static electricity in cars for car owners to choose from. Below we will give you a few more common static elimination things.
Use antistatic tape
The anti-static belt is currently the most used anti-static product in automobiles. We often see a belt behind the rear of a car on the street, which is an anti-static belt. This thing is very convenient to install. Just fix it under the rear of the car and touch the ground at the end to release the static electricity on the car.
product advantages:While having the conductive function, it also has the function of reflecting light at night.
Product Disadvantages:Due to the contact with the ground, it wears quickly and is also a bit shabby.
Discharge keychain
This thing is very small and can be carried with you. It is mainly used to lightly touch the place you need to touch to eliminate static electricity, and it can also release people's own static electricity.
product advantages:Cheap and easy to carry
Product Disadvantages:The discharge speed is slower and there are more fakes on the market.
Use anti-static antenna
The working principle of the electrostatic antenna is to conduct the static electricity in the car to the antenna through its internal metal wire, and then to the nature through the air or the ground, so as to achieve the purpose of eliminating static electricity in the car.
product advantages:It can beautify the car roof and is easy to install
Product Disadvantages:Lots of fakes
With the help of the dual effect of the discharge circuit and the carbon resin through the ground wire, the static electricity on the car body is discharged, and it can effectively reduce the dust and dirt attached to the car body, and reduce the sound noise. Some are very unique in appearance except for electrostatic antennas, which can be used to decorate the roof of the car. It should be noted that before installation, please clean the dust and dirt with a neutral detergent.
Antistatic agent
If you don't want to use any accessories to eliminate static electricity, you can also use an antistatic agent. You only need to use it on the carpet, dashboard, cloth cover, door handle and other easily conductive parts in the car to reduce the generation of static electricity.
product advantages:Easy to use
Product Disadvantages:The price varies greatly, and the validity period is relatively short
In addition, larger car maintenance shops can also provide anti-static maintenance services, from the inside to the outside to discharge static electricity, but the price is higher, ranging from a few hundred to thousands of yuan.
Summarize:
In fact, it is basically impossible to completely eliminate static electricity, so we can only provide some things that need to be paid attention to in daily use to avoid the occurrence of static electricity. You can try some of the methods mentioned above in daily use, I hope it can help you. In addition, if you have some car-related problems, you can also tell me in my blog, and I will help you solve them together.
