The preparation of PVDF-BTO composite film and the influence of polarization intensity on the piezoelectric properties of composite film

Abstract In this study, the PVDF-BTO composite film was prepared by the casting method. Through FTIR, SEM and other phase structure and microstructure analysis of the composite film, it was found that the introduction of BTO can promote the growth of β-PVDF. The relative content of β-PVDF in PVDF-BTO composite film reached 62.7%, indicating that BTO acts as a nucleating agent in PVDF. PVDF-BTO composite piezoelectric film is obtained after high temperature stretching and field polarization. After testing the electrical properties of the composite piezoelectric film, it is found that the piezoelectric performance of the PVDF-BTO composite film is higher than that of the pure PVDF film. It shows that the blending of BTO and PVDF to prepare the film promotes the deflection of the electrical properties of the film to the inherent electrical properties of BTO. The influence of different polarization intensities on the piezoelectric properties of composite materials was studied. The results show that the optimal polarization intensity of the PVDF-BTO composite piezoelectric film is 30 KV/mm, and the highest piezoelectric constant d33 is 13 pC/N.
