Electric charge makes drops of water more destructive
Nature, Published online: 09 September 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02705-zIn many real-world settings, water droplets can become slightly charged as they slide across solid surfaces. This charge has been found to enable water droplets to damage protective coatings more easily than uncharged droplets do, and to cause the underlying metal to corrode.
