Extension: Why does silk fabric have static electricity

Physics in middle school has learned the experiment of using silk to rub glass rod and plastic rod

to generate static electricity, which proves that human body or natural fiber can generate static electricity. In silk printing and dyeing plants, when drying real silk, static eliminators are also needed to resist the impact of static electricity on workers. It can be seen that real silk still has static electricity, which is why real silk has electricity.
