Abstract
Piezoelectric sensor can be used to inform the battery safety by detecting the battery swelling induced pressure. In this study, a piezoelectric sensing material, sensor unit, and sensing system were developed using piezoelectric polymer polyvinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene(PVdF-HFP) and piezoelectric ceramic BaTiO<sub>3</sub>(BTO). Free-standing PVdF-HFP/BTO composite nanofiber web was retrieved as the sensing material due to the nanofiber web-based flexibility and the molecular arrangement driven piezoelectric performances. The PVdF-HFP/BTO composite nanofiber web-based sensor was employed in the automatic pressure sensing system, which provides the visual and audible signals once the pressure exceeds a certain limit. Our work demonstrates that the design of new piezoelectric sensing system is a fruitful pathway to sensing the battery malfunctions.
