Properties of Poled Piezo-electric PVDF Film
Introduction
The process of turning PVDF from an inert polymer to a poled piezo-electric film is a complicated one involving several changes. Partly due to this, and partly due to the inherent randomness of the semi-amorphous structure of PVDF, there can be considerable variation in the material properties of the final material. Consequently, the materials properties listed below provide an indication of the typical values, rather than any guarantee of exact data.
