The studies have been presented on spatial and temporal distributions of surface charge on samples of ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) and silicon rubber (SIR). The charge was deposited from a positive impulse corona source located at 1 mm above the polymeric surfaces. During the experiments, the number of pulses and their voltage level were varied. It was observed that the spread of the charge over the surface of the samples as well as its magnitude were both increasing with increasing number of impulses applied. EPDM accumulated charge easier and had a longer relaxation time than SIR. A common feature frequently observed in both cases was that the resulting charge distributions had a saddle-like pattern. Performed computer simulations showed that this feature can be attributed to peculiarities of the corona charging in the considered system, which took place in a form of a burst corona, and the dynamics of the deposited charges could be related to burst corona pulses.
