Abstract
ABSTRACTFerroelectric PZT-PVDF composites (0–3 connectivity) of specific dimensions were made utilizing a hot press technique. Linear variation in the experimental density of the pellets made from 0.1 to 0.8 PZT volume fraction was observed. The surface morphology of the composite has been micro-graphed using SEM. The variation of the dielectric properties of the composites on PZT volume fractions is reported and analyzed. It is observed that there was an increment in dielectric constant (ϵr) with an increase in temperature and volume fractions. The piezoelectric strain coefficient (d33) increases with an increase in the volume fraction and voltage coefficient (g33) were calculated. Comparisons were made with the Furukawa model to ϵr and d33. The remnant polarization and coercive field were analyzed from the hysteresis plots.
