| Abstract | ||||
| The effect of triboelectric discharge or triboelectrification of rubbing materials recently attracting the attention of scientists to be used as a source of clean energy. There is an amount of electrical energy produced by means of employing the triboelectric effect of sliding between nonconductive layers which known as triboelectric generators TEGs. There are several factors affecting the generated electricity from TEG ranged from the contact mode, dielectric layers to electrode material and rubbing conditions. Wearable devices, sensors, energy storing devices are some examples of the applications of TEGs beside the gathering of clean and low-cost energy. This research paper concerns the investigation of the triboelectrification behavior of polymeric composites reinforced with carbon fiber. There are some additives that were suggested to improve the output electricity. Effect of contact mechanism as well as additive types and sliding conditions were examined. Lateral sliding and contact separation modes were employed for the proposed TEGs. The results show that; using of sunflower husk seeds powder increases the amount of generated charge, as well as sliding under high contact pressure increases the amount of charge generated between sliding layers. | ||||
