Degas conductivity

Have you ever noticed how sometimes when you pour a cold drink it gets all foggy on the outside of the glass? That foggy stuff is called condensation. Degas conductivity is kind of like that, but with tiny electronic bits instead of water droplets.

You see, everything in the world is made up of little bitty particles called atoms. Some of these atoms really like to hang on to their electrons, while others are more willing to share them around. We call these conducting materials, because they're really good at letting electricity flow through them!

Now, some things can get in the way of this electricity flow - like air bubbles trapped inside your drink. We call these obstacles "impurities". Just like the condensation on the outside of a cold glass, some impurities can cling to the surface of conductive materials and get in the way of the electricity.

That's where degas conductivity comes in! "Degas" means to remove impurities or bubbles. When we degas a conductive material, we're basically getting rid of anything that might stop the electricity from flowing smoothly through it.

So, degas conductivity is all about making sure that any conductive material is as pure and obstacle-free as possible to allow electricity to move through it easily. It's like giving the electrons a clear path to follow, making sure they can get through without getting stuck on anything along the way.
