**Abstract**
 A new class of antistatic agents are used to prepare antistatic polymer compositions via treatment with selected combinations of neoalkoxy titanates and zirconates and trineoalkoxy zirconates. They are added in minor amounts during compounding to form non-blooming, bipolar layers of dissimilar organometallics, creating a surface and volume electron-transfer circuit, which results in an antistatic effect that works independently of atmospheric moisture. These materials are soluble in, but not limited to polyolefins, polyesters, polystyrenes, polyurethanes, vinyls, elastomers, solvent and waterborne acrylics and coatings, and remain stable during processing. The relative merits and inherent chemistries of the different antistatic agents are discussed, and application data are included for the new organometallic materials. The discussion includes definitions, conventional antistatic chemistry, and methods of improving efficiency of conductive particulates through coupling and catalysis. 19 refs.
