Influence of Wettability and Geometry on Contact Electrification between Nonionic Insulators. [PDF]
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces, 2023 Contact electrification is an interfacial process in which two surfaces exchange electrical charges when they are in contact with one another. Consequently, the surfaces may gain opposite polarity, inducing an electrostatic attraction.
