Outgoing nucleon polarization in exclusive deuteron electrodisintegration is studied at the quasielastic peak in the standard theory with emphasis on the effect of nucleonic and pionic relativistic corrections. The cases of polarized beams or/and polarized target are considered. Sizable relativistic effects are pointed out in several polarization components. The sensitivity of nucleon polarization to the neutron charge form factor [ital G][sub [ital E]][sup [ital n]] is discussed. In particular, it is shown that the longitudinal component of neutron polarization with vector polarized deuterons is as sensitive to [ital G][sub [ital E]][sup [ital n]] as the sideways beam polarization transfer.
