1.1 Origin of electrostatic charges in polymers
The ability of polymers to become statically charged is due to their molecular structure. This results in low conductance (1/R ) and surface conductivity, preventing charges from flowing quickly and being eliminated; the slow flow means that positively and negatively charged areas can be adjacent to each other on the surface of the same material
