Transient Strain-Induced Electrode Potentials

Abstract
Transient potentials produced when copper and zinc‐plated copper wires are strained elastically in and solutions, respectively, were investigated. The potential response on loading was almost instantaneous and decayed back to the original value within several seconds. The unloading response was similar to loading, but of opposite sign. The amplitude of response was approximately proportional to the load. Theoretical considerations of the electrical double layer predict the experimental results obtained.
