How can you create a static charge on an insulator?

If they are made of different materials and are both insulators.


What materials are naturally static-resistant?

There is no material that is naturally static resistent. The time for which the static charge is present on the material depends on its Relaxation Time. This is directly proportional to the ratio of dielectric constant and its conductivity. Thus conducting materials have very short relaxation time so we feel no static charge is developed on it. Thus for practical purpose most of the metals are static resistant.


Are materials that can be statically charged conductors or insulators?

Either one can acquire a static charge.


What are different types of packaging of electronic components?

The common type of electronics packaging is referred to as static protective packaging orelectrostatic discharge(ESD). Typical package types include static bags and corstat containers. ~According to what I know, there's the following:1. Dissipative Polybag - has the ability to dissipate a static charge to ground. This keeps charge (static electricity) from building up on the package or the device. This material is also antistatic, suggesting that it will not charge up (tribocharge) when rubbed against other materials.2. Conductive Polybags - the conductivity is about 103-2 and will dissipate a charge very fast. Unfortunately this fast dissipation also means that a charged person or object can 'spark' (ESD) to its surface.3. Shielding Bags - provide the dissipative and antistatic attributes of the poly bag but add a metal shield and polyester dielectric to sop static from entering the bag.4. Moisture Barrier Bags - it provides dissipation, antistatic properties static shielding and add a moisture vapor barrier. the moisture barrier protects moisture sensitive items and improves long term storage.Hope this can help...


What are the differences between conductive and nonconductive rubber?

When a material is identified as conductive it means that an electrical current can pass through that material. Some materials do not readily conduct electricity through the material, but will dissippate static electricity so that there is not a build up of charge on the material. Humidity and applied voltage can make a big difference on how effective the less conductive or the dissipative materials respond. Some other details about how fast a charge is released and so forth are also considerations when determining a materials response to electrical energy. In short, a conductive rubber has a Ohm resistance no larger that about 1,000,000 Ohms (often referred to as Ohms/square). Dissipative rubber has a resistance of about 1,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 Ohms. "Anti-Static" rubber is about 1,000,000,000 to 1,000,000,000,000 Ohms. Anything over this is considered insulative rubber. (refer to Boedeker.com for more detailed information).


What material will hold static charge on its surface?

Any material electrically separated from ground will hold a static charge, even the human body, but only some materials can genate a static sharge in the first place by friction.Run a clear bic ballpoint pen over your hair then hold it close to a fine dribble of water from the tap. It will bend the water because of its static charge. Once the water touches the pen, the charge escapes through the water, up into the tap and then into the earth via the pipes. Note only some plastics generate a static charge in this way.I believe that some materials hold a negative static charge, while others (glass?) hold a positive charge. Not sure though.


Is lighting a static charge or is it produce by static charge?

Lighting is caused by static charge, not that lighting is a static charge . It happen when unlike charge come in attraction.


Does a television set create static electricity?

Some materials cause or create more static electricity than others. Since static electricity is the collection of electrically charged particles on the surface of a material, various materials have a tendency of either giving up electrons and becoming positive (+) in charge or attracting electrons and becoming negative (−) in charge. The Triboelectric Series is a list of materials, showing which have a greater tendency to become positive (+) and which have a greater tendency to become negative (−). The list is a handy tool to determine which combinations of materials create the most static electricity


Why do clothes in the dryer get static cling?

Static cling is a phenomenon caused by static electricity. When dry materials rub against each other, they can exchange electrons, creating an electrical charge. This charge can build up in the form of static electricity and cause two objects, typically clothing, to stick or hold together.


Accumulation of electric charges on a object?

The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.


Why static electricity don't have electric charge?

Static electricity DOES have an electric charge.
