Abstract
Abstract Polymer materials have been widely used in modern industries duo to their characteristics such as lightweight, low price, and corrosion resistance. However, the inherent insulation of polymer materials can cause static electricity, which has become one of the major problems that has limited their application. Meanwhile, as the basis for ensuring the service field and life of the polymer materials, mechanical properties can affect the comprehensive properties of the polymer materials. Therefore, research on the preparation of composite materials with both antistatic properties and good mechanical properties with antistatic‐reinforced modification has attracted extensive attention and achieved important progress. Based on the principle of electrostatic electrification of antistatic‐reinforced modification, antistatic mechanisms and main preparation strategies, this paper summarized the research achievements of the antistatic‐reinforced polymer materials in recent years. Additionally, some factors that have affected their antistatic properties were presented, and the development trends of the antistatic‐reinforced polymer materials based on the deficiencies of current research were proposed.
