Pyroelectric Properties of PZT/P(VDF-TrFE) 0-3 Composites
نویسنده
چکیده
0-3 composites of lead zirconate titanate particles dispersed in a polyvinylidene fluoridetrifluoroethylene copolymer matrix may have a good potential for pyroelectric sensor applications. Thermal expansion mismatch together with the piezoelectric activity of the constituents produces a secondary pyroelectric effect in a composite. A model for this secondary effect in 0-3 composites has been developed to extend our previous description of the primary pyroelectric coefficient. The pyroelectric coefficient, dielectric constant, thermal expansion coefficient, shear modulus and bulk modulus of composite samples with different ceramic volume fraction have been investigated experimentally. The pyroelectric coefficient is compared with theoretical predictions.

PIEZOELECTRIC AND PYROELECTRIC PROPERTIES OF PT/P(VDF-TrFE) 0-3 COMPOSITES
Lead titanate (PT)/vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (P(VDF-TrFE)) copolymer 0-3 composites have been fabricated by solution blending followed by conipression-molding. In order to obtain piezoelectric and pyroelectric activities the composites have been polarized by a stepwise poling method. Samples with (i) polarization in the ceramic phase only and (ii) parallel polarization in the cerami...

In this study (0–3) P(VDF-TrFE)/BaTiO3 composites containing up to 60 vol% of ceramic phase were prepared by solvent casting or compression molding. Their thermomechanical, dielectric, and piezoelectric properties were investigated, and discussed in the light of the properties of the basic components, the processing route and the resulting morphology. The crystalline structure of the P(VDF-TrFE...

متن کاملFerroelectric Properties and Polarization Switching Kinetic of Poly (vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) Copolymer
The discovery of the piezoelectric properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) by Kawai [Kawai, 1969], and the study of its pyroelectric and nonlinear optical properties [Bergman et al., 1971; Glass, 1971] led to the discovery of its ferroelectric properties in the early 1970s. Since that time, considerable development and progress have been made on both materials and devices based on PVDF. ...

Langmuir-Blodgett films of polyvinylidene fluoride trifluoroethylene - P(VDF-TrFE)-copolymers possess substantially improved electrocaloric and pyroelectric properties, when compared with conventionally spin-cast films. In order to rationalize this, we prepared single-layered films of P(VDF-TrFE) (70 : 30) using both deposition techniques. Grazing incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS),...
