Screen coatings

Anti-Static coatings

Due to bombardment by beam electrons, monitor screens become electrically charged when in use. Electrically charged screens surfaces can attract dust particles. An Anti-Static coating is a conductive coating deposited on the screen (or on a glass panel immediately in front of the screen) that conducts away the charge and prevents screen dust build-up.

AGAS (Anti-Glare, Anti-Static) coating

AGAS is a silica coating applied to the surface of the screen by a spinning and spraying process. It operates by diffusing reflected light to blur images of light sources on the screen. To provide anti- static properties, the coating is impregnated with small conductive particles.

ARAS (Anti-Reflection, Anti-Static) coating
