    Ebonite stick is a form of plastic that is hard, shiny and rigid. When you rub an ebonite stick with a wool cloth, the electrons from the wool cloth are transferred to the ebonite stick and the ebonite stick gets negatively charged. Consequently, the wool cloth gets positively charged. This results in production of static electricity.
