Abstract
ABSTRACTThermoplastic/lead-free piezoelectric ceramic composite have been prepared. Sodium niobate (NaNbO3) has been chosen for its high Curie temperature. Moreover, it could be synthesized with two different morphologies: NaNbO3 nanowires (NN NW's) and NaNbO3 particles (NN P's). The filler has been dispersed in thermoplastic matrices with different dielectric permittivities : PA11 ( and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) (. Due to polarization conditions, only ceramic particles are poled. The piezoelectric coefficient (d33) has been measured in composites. The higher d33 is recorded in composites based on PA11 (d33 = 6.5 pC.N−1 for 30 vol. % NN NW's). The influence of the NN aspect ratio on PVDF/NN composites has been analysed: the higher d33 (d33 = 2.6 pC.N−1 for 25 vol. %) is recorded in PVDF/NN P's. The major interest of these hybrid lead-free piezoelectric composites is mild poling conditions, ductility and thermal stability of piezoelectric performances.
