Background
Piezoelectric materials are important functional materials for converting between mechanical energy (including acoustic energy) and electrical energy, and particularly play a very important role in the sensor field of information detection, conversion, processing, storage, and the like. The piezoelectric composite material is a novel piezoelectric functional material formed by compounding piezoelectric ceramics and other matrix materials in a certain communication mode, wherein the 0-3 type piezoelectric composite material represents a composite system formed by uniformly distributing piezoelectric ceramic particles (0 dimension) in 3-dimension communicated polymers. The 0-3 type piezoelectric composite material is favored in terms of the advantages of easy molding processing (only the piezoelectric ceramic powder and the polymer are mixed together, and a finished product can be obtained by a polymer processing method), good flexibility, easy preparation of a large-area sensor, good comprehensive piezoelectric performance and the like.
To obtain a 0-3 type piezoelectric composite material with excellent comprehensive performance, the key is polarization of the composite material. Many intricate influencing factors restrict the adequate polarization of the piezoelectric composite. Thus, many contradictions and difficulties are always encountered in designing and preparing piezoelectric composites. Among the more prominent problems are: how to improve the polarization performance of the 0-3 type piezoelectric composite material. The electric properties of two-phase materials in the composite material are too large, so that the polarization of the piezoelectric ceramic phase in the system is very difficult, and a high-performance composite system cannot be obtained. Increasing the dielectric constant and conductivity of the polymer is an effective way to increase the polarization of the composite. And the dielectric constant and the electric conductivity of the polymer serving as the matrix of the piezoelectric composite material are not high. The polymer matrix with the ideal polarization performance is PVDF and its copolymer, and the two polymers have high dielectric constants relative to other polymers. In practical applications, polymer matrices with good overall electrical properties are not readily available. Another approach is to reduce the dielectric constant of the piezoelectric ceramic particles, but this behavior tends to reduce the piezoelectric activity of the ceramic. It can thus be seen that it is difficult to find a composite system with higher polarization properties. To increase the polarization of the composite, an appropriate amount of conductive phase may be added to the system to improve the performance of the composite. However, when the dielectric constant of the polymer is increased by adding a conductive phase, there is a tendency that the electrical conductivity of the polymer is greatly increased so that the electrical conductivity of the ceramic is exceeded in the vicinity of the polarization temperature of the ceramic. This is disadvantageous for the polarization of the composite material. Thus, the amount of conductive phase in the polymer must not be too high, so that the dielectric constant of the polymer is not too high. By changing the state of the conductive phase in the polymer, the dielectric constant can be increased and the conductivity can be relatively reduced. The high dispersion of the conductive particles in the polymer matrix, or the attachment of the conductive phase in the polymer segments, facilitates an increase in dielectric constant and a decrease in conductivity.
