    Can Plastic Exhibit Magnetism Under Certain Conditions?”

    Again, thank you, your most recent response is most interesting I that I was under the impression. That magnetism and electrostatic effects are similar in both nature and origin? I am looking for some way in which these electrostatic effects can be induced by creating and using a strong...

    Can Plastic Exhibit Magnetism Under Certain Conditions?”

    Thank you so much for yhe comment. There is one aspect that concerns me about your answer, which is that we have all experienced static build up in plastics, when they stick to fingers and clothes etc. If you are correct where is this static energy stored and how does it exist?

    Can Plastic Exhibit Magnetism Under Certain Conditions?”

    I appreciate that under standard conditions small (c 5mm) plastic particles are apolar and thus non-magentic. However, can conditions be created under which such particles could exhibit polarity?
