  1. Frictional Electricity

    Electricity produced by friction of dissimilar substances. (See Electrostatic Series.) The contact theory holds that friction plays only a secondary rôle in this process; that it increases the thoroughness of contact, and tends to dry the rubbing surfaces, but that the charges induced are due to contact of dissimilar substances, not to friction of one against the other.
