Gareth56 Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 I understand that rubbing a glass rod with silk leave the glass rod with a positive charge and rubbing rubber/PVC rod with fur gives the rod a negative charge. So if you wanted a rubber rod to become positively charged would you rub it with silk? Why do some materials accept electrons better than others as in the case of silk and fur?
