A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study on the Mechanisms Behind Tribocharging Phenomenon and the Influence of Triboemission

This work describes recent research into the mechanisms behind tribocharging and the influence of triboemission. The term tribocharging is a type of contact-induced electrification and refers to the transfer of charge between rubbing components. The term triboemission, on the other hand, refers to e...
