Triboelectrification electrostatic potential of graphite/monomer casting nylon composites under dry sliding: Correlation with electrical resistivity and wear mechanisms
(pages 1369–1377)Polymer Composites 31 #8 (2010)
Jian et al showed that graphite is an excellent antistatic agent for casting nylon composites under dry sliding.  The triboelectrification electrostatic potential and electrical resistivity of composites can be predicted by the graphite content. The graphite not only reduced electrification but also enhanced lubrication and the friction heat dissipation.  (RDC 10/15/2010)
