Other specialized lab coats include anti-static (ESD) lab coats, made from synthetic or carbon-fiber-infused fabrics, which are used in electronics manufacturing to prevent static discharge from damaging sensitive components. Chemical-resistant lab coats, made from materials like Tyvek or treated polyester, offer broader protection against various chemicals and solvents. Biohazard lab coats, typically polyester-cotton blends with protective finishes, are used in microbiology and healthcare labs to protect against bloodborne pathogens and viruses, safeguarding both the wearer and the surrounding environment from contamination.
