• Electrification by electron transfer among mechano-anions, -cations and -radicals.
• The sign of net charge of each polymer can be deduced from each chemical structure.
• Relative sign of net charge is speculated from the chemical structure.
Many studies have been reported for contact electrification based on the electron transfer from donors to acceptors. However, the chemical structures of donors and acceptors have not been identified. Here we calculated the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels of model structures of mechano anions, mechano cations and mechano radicals which were produced by the heterogeneous and homogeneous scissions of covalent bonds comprising polymer main chain in vacuum at 77 K. We identified the donors are mechano anions(HOMO) and mechano radicals(HOMO), and the acceptors are mechano cations(LUMO) and mechano radicals(LUMO). The contact electrification is due to the electron transfer from the donors to the acceptors during contacting on the friction surface, and produces mosaic nano-scopic domains with opposite sign. The sign of the net charge of polymer was deduced from the number of paths of electron acceptance reaction. The relative sign of charge and position on the triboelectric series were deduced from their chemical structure.
