Why do winter clothes have static electricity?

Why is it easy to generate static electricity in winter?

There is a strange phenomenon in winter, that is, it is easy to generate static electricity on clothes, and hair also produces static electricity, which has some scientific principles in it, and you can learn about it together.

1. The reason why winter clothes are prone to static electricity

In winter, the weather is relatively dry, so it is easy to produce static electricity, this is its scientific principle, when the weather is dry, static electricity will appear between frictions, and its charge can not be conducted, and finally it becomes what you see. It will also be found that the moisture in the air in winter is not as much as in summer, people will not sweat in winter, when there is no water stored in the dry situation between the clothes and **, the charge will be generated, and people will wear more clothes in winter, they will wear sweaters and down jackets, and they will find that these clothes are more likely to produce static electricity than cotton clothes. First of all, let's understand the reason for the occurrence of static electricity is because of friction, there will be friction between people and clothes throughout the year, but only in winter it will appear static electricity, mainly because of the climate, it is found that there is more moisture in the air in spring and summer, and it is also moist, and people are also prone to sweating, and there will be no static electricity.

Second, there is less moisture in the air in winter, and static electricity will occur

But in winter it's not the same people don't sweat, and the air has water molecules.

Very few objects and objects have the export of electric charges that are shown by friction, and when this friction accumulates to a certain amount, there will be unexpected results. In the winter, it is found that static electricity can also be removed, we should reduce the intensity of their friction when washing clothes, and we can also increase our own humidity and put a humidifier in the room.

You can also put fabric softener in the laundry.

It will make the clothes softer, the fibers will become thinner, and the friction will be reduced, so it will not appear static electricity. You will find that the most important thing is to make the indoor air more humid, when there is more moisture in the air, there will be no static electricity, which is also a simple way, we can install a humidifier in the room.

Because winter clothes are thicker, friction occurs, and electricity is generated in the process of friction, which causes static electricity to occur in clothes.

It is because the weather in winter is very dry, and there is friction between clothes and the human body, which is easy to produce static electricity, which is a normal phenomenon.

Because winter is relatively dry, and sweater friction will generate electricity, which will produce static electricity.

Compared to other seasons, winters are drier, the air is less humid, and the body** is more dehydrated. At the same time, because the clothes we wear are thicker and contain a lot of chemical fiber components, in the case of drying, the friction between the chemical fiber and ** produces a certain charge, which is what we often call static electricity.

This static electricity does not cause harm to the body, but sensitive people may have itching conditions, especially the elderly. As we age, the sebaceous glands on the sebaceous gland also gradually shrink, the ability to secrete sebum decreases, and the feeling is drier, so older people may feel more sensitive.

However, regardless of whether it is positive static electricity or negative static electricity, charge transfer will occur when an electrostatic object comes into contact with a zero-potential object (grounded object) or an object with a potential difference with it, which is the spark discharge phenomenon we see every day.

1. Dry blocking and regretting: Dry people are more likely to dig in the static shed in winter, because the dry environment is more likely to accumulate charges, resulting in static electricity. Some people** have high water content, and the charge of static electricity can be channeled into the ground, which has little impact on the body.

The other part of the people is dry, the charge is not good to be introduced into the ground, and it becomes a strong electrostatic voltage, and the person will be in a charged state.

2. Lack of oxygen in the body: When our body is short of oxygen, it is easy to be static when we touch everything in winter. When our body is too tired, there will be a lack of oxygen in the body, which causes the body to produce a lot of positive charges, and the charge accumulated by the body in winter is not easy to dissipate, and it will slowly accumulate to form voltage.

In winter, woolen sweaters and sweaters carry more static electricity, and cotton pajamas and shirts carry less static electricity.

Home textile experts say that choosing clothes correctly can effectively avoid static electricity, and for pregnant women and babies, caution is even more important. Because static electricity can cause the level of progesterone in pregnant women to drop, they are prone to fatigue, irritability and headaches. Therefore, when choosing clothes, you should pay attention to the label and understand the composition of the clothes.

Generally speaking, cotton clothing produces less static electricity, and intimate clothing should be 100% cotton as much as possible. The vast majority of today's clothes are composite components, such as acrylic, polyester, artificial hosiery silk and other materials are prone to static electricity, and people who are afraid of static electricity can avoid choosing clothes containing these material components.
