摘要 |
The present invention generally relates to the charging of materials via contact electrification, including systems and methods of assembly using contact electrification. One aspect of the present invention is directed to systems and methods of identifying and synthesizing nonionic polymeric materials that can be charged using contact electrification. Another aspect of the present invention is directed to methods of localizing charged particles or other materials on such surfaces, for example, in the presence of a controlled humidity environment. Yet another aspect of the present invention is directed to a surface comprising positively and negatively charged regions. Oppositely charged materials may be attracted to those regions. Other aspects of the invention are directed to methods of making, using, and promoting such materials, or kits containing such materials. |
