Abstract

Epoxy resin and lead zirconate titanate (P-41) ceramic were respectively used as matrix and functional component to fabricate 1-3 and 1-3-2 connectivity piezoelectric ceramic-polymer composites by dice and filling method. The interface bonding condition between matrix and piezoelectric functional phase was investigated by using SEM. Piezoelectric properties, dielectric properties, electromechanical properties and acoustic impedance of the 1-3 and 1-3-2 connectivity piezoelectric composites were studied. The results show that the interface bonding of the two-phase materials is compact, comparing with the P-41 ceramic, the thickness electromechanical coupling coefficient Kt of both kinds of the composites is almost two times larger than that of P-41 ceramic, while the value of mechanical quality factor Qm and dielectric loss tanδ are smaller, acoustic impedance Z and relative dielectric constant er are almost half of P-41 ceramic. The value of d33, g33, Kt, Qm, Z, er, and tanδ of 1-3-2 connectivity piezoelectric composite are close to those of 1-3 connectivity piezoelectric composite, which show that the 1-3-2 connectivity piezoelectric composite can instead of 1-3 connectivity piezoelectric composite in special application field.
