A PACKAGING UNIT FOR PROTECTING ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS FROM ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE, PAPER FOR A PACKING UNIT AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAID PAPER

摘要

The present invention relates to a packaging unit, particularly a packaging unit for protecting electronic components against electrostatic discharge, said packaging unit being formed of a cardboard material made of several layers of paper. The cardboard material incorporates an outer paper layer (2) forming the exterior of the packaging unit and having conductive properties, said paper layer (2) containing particles (5) which are conductive and uniformly dispersed in the paper layer (2). The cardboard material further incorporates an inner paper layer (6) forming the interior of the packaging unit and having electrostatic dissipative properties. The invention also relates to a paper incorporated in a packaging unit and a method to produce such a paper in a paper manufacturing machine.
