The Carra Letter went on to address the implications of making a yarn treatment product before it is added to the yarn to which it will provide antistatic properties. If a salt form of antistatic agent is made by pH neutralization of an acid precursor during the formulation process of making the yarn treatment product, then the salt does provide a primary purpose of the yarn treatment product, and it is not exempt from the Inventory and PMN regulations. This is the case even if other yarn treatment ingredients are present in the formulation when the acid precursor is neutralized. The distinction between this example and the polymer salt example is that the polymer salts were made as part of the ink formulation and do not contribute a primary performance characteristic of ink, but in this example the acid is made as part of a product that is intended only as a yarn treatment and it does contribute one of the primary performance characteristics of the yarn treatment product. 

Antistatic agents are incorporated in plastics to prevent or reduce the build-up of static charges on the surface of a product. They must be able to stand the processing temperatures used and not interact negatively with other additives (some cationic and anionic antistats interfere with PVC heat stabilisers). They must also satisfy food contact regulations, and not adversely affect performance in other ways. 

The incorporation of an antistatic agent has little or no effect on the mechanical, chemical, or thermal properties and no effect on the processing conditions. However, the presence of antistatic agents may affect the transparency and printability and may make PE non-compliant with US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, although FDA-approved antistatic agents are available.
