Abstract
One of the most important things in eliminating electrification hazards is the removing of electric charge, especially when a textile material is subjected to rubbing more than once. In this article the electrification of textiles is represented by an equivalent closed circuit. Results of the author's experiments are as follows:
(1) Electrification of textiles can be represented by a D. C. circuit.
(2) The circuit theory suggests that the generation of static charge on textiles is affected by a series of resistances or by an external electromotive force, and this is proved by the author's experiments.
(3) These facts can be used as static eliminators.
(4) Static eliminators based on corona works on two types of neutralization.
