Triboelectric Phase Entanglement explains why static builds during friction. Pi particles on surface layers become rotationally entangled, misaligning and storing tension.

Formula:

Delta Phi_1 != Delta Phi_2 => Rotational Strain increases

This shows how rubbing materials causes misalignment in surface spin — a precursor to static discharge. The triboelectric series becomes a ranking of rotational compatibility, not electron exchange.
