poly(vinylidene fluoride) (pvdf) fibers with two molecular weights were prepared via electrospinning process. in this process, the concentration of spinning depended drastically on the gelation process. also, it was experimentally smaller than obtained concentration in the solution entanglement number approach (sena). proof of this incompatibility was explained by the properties of pvdf and its...

Abstract. Flexible free standing polymer electrolyte films have been successfully prepared using a blend of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) doped with lithium perchlorate (LiClO4). The conductivity of the film was influenced by salt concentration and the degree of crystallinity. An optimum room temperature conductivity obtained was 2.10...

A superfine Li0.33La0.557TiO₃ (LLTO, 69.4 nm) was successfully synthesized by a facile solvent-thermal method to enhance the electrochemical properties of the lithium-ion battery separator. Co-axial nanofiber of cellulose and Poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) was prepared by a co-axial electrospinning technique, in which the shell material was PVDF-HFP and the core was...

PZT-Poly(vinylidene fluoride) composites were prepared by hot-pressing method. Before addition, PZT particles were firstly modified with two different coupling agents. The micromorphology, microstructure, dielectric properties, and piezoelectric properties of the composites were characterized and investigated. Results indicated that PZT particles were homogeneously dispersed in the PVDF matrix ...

A robotic tactile sensor comprised of 25 discrete sensor electrodes arranged in a 5x5 grid was designed and fabricated from a piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film coupled to an integrated circuit (IC). Each of the 25 sensing electrodes in the IC grid were connected to metal-oxidesemiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) amplifiers which provided sufficient gain to generate usa...

Microporous poly(vinylidene fluoride)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PVDF/PMMA) membranes were prepared using the phase-separation method. Then, the membranes were immersed in liquid electrolyte to form polymer electrolytes. The effects of PMMA on the morphology, degree of crystallinity, porosity, and electrolyte uptake of the PVDF membrane were studied. The addition of PMMA increased the pore size...
