Product Description
This silk cloth piece is a physics laboratory resource for electrostatics demonstrations. It is used for generating static charges through friction when rubbed against glass rods (the triboelectric effect) — in the standard triboelectric series, this leaves the glass rod positively charged and the silk negatively charged. It is used for classroom experiments helping students visualize electron transfer and electromagnetic principles.
