The polarization phenomenon of papers containing different amounts and different types of inorganic fillers during corona charging was studied using a dose-charging method. This method enables to investigate the phenomena in the conditions close to the real ones. It revealed that the paper composition affects the polarization tendency during the corona charging of paper. The filler influences the paper's dielectric constant and hence its electrical capacitance, charging potential and polarizing electric field. It was shown that paper polarization depends mainly on the electric field and this is caused by the orientation polarization and the role of the filler origin and its concentration in the polarization was surprisingly low. Polarization temperature dependences enable to propose the paper polarization mechanism. Paper polarizability is dominated by cellulose and the moisture content in it, and the liability of cellulose and hydrogen bonds hydroxyl groups.
