Polarization and piezoelectricity in polymer films with artificial void structure

Laminated polymer-film systems with well-defined void structures were prepared from fluoroethylenepropylene (FEP) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) layers. First the PTFE films were patterned and then fusion-bonded with the FEP films. The laminates were subjected to either corona or contact charging in order to obtain the desired piezoelectricity. The build-up of the “macro-dipoles” in the laminated films was studied by recording the electric hysteresis loops. The resulting electro-mechanical properties were investigated by means of dielectric resonance spectroscopy (DRS) and direct measurements of the stress-strain relationship. Moreover, the thermal stability of the piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficient was investigated at elevated temperatures and via thermally stimulated discharge (TSD) current measurements in short circuit. For 150 μm thick laminated films, consisting of one 25 μm thick PTFE layer, two 12.5 μm thick FEP layers, and a void of 100 μm height, the critical voltage necessary for the build-up of the “macro-dipoles” in the inner voids was approximately 1400 V, which agrees with the value calculated from the Paschen Law. A quasi-static piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficient up to 300 pC/N was observed after corona charging. The mechanical properties of the film systems are highly anisotropic. At room temperature, the Young’s moduli of the laminated film system are around 0.37 MPa in the thickness direction and 274 MPa in the lateral direction, respectively. Using these values, the theoretical shape anisotropy ratio of the void was calculated, which agrees well with experimental observation. Compared with films that do not exhibit structural regularity, the laminates showed improved thermal stability of the d ₃₃ coefficients. The thermal stability of d ₃₃ can be further improved by pre-aging. E.g., the reduction of the d ₃₃ value in the sample pre-aged at 150°C for 5 h was less than 5% after annealing for 30 h at a temperature of 90°C.     

Thermally stable fluorocarbon ferroelectrets with high piezoelectric coefficient

Fused layers of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and fluoroethylenepropylene (FEP) films with small interfacial cellular gas voids show large quasistatic piezoelectric d₃₃-coefficients of more than 1000 pC/N. After annealing at a temperature of 90 °C for 4 days, d₃₃ amounts to about 400 pC/N and thereafter changes by less than 10 percent over a period of 5 days at this temperature. The piezoelectric coefficient is independent of applied pressure in the range up to 20 kPa. Its frequency response shows a small decrease up to the vicinity of the thickness resonance frequency at 40 to 150 kHz. PACS 77.65.Bn; 77.55.+f; 77.84.Jd     

Physical foaming of fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP) copolymers in supercritical carbon dioxide: single-film fluoropolymer piezoelectrets

Cellular polymer foams with significant piezoelectric activity were prepared from fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP) copolymers. The required void structure is obtained by saturation of FEP films with supercritical carbon dioxide and a subsequent heat treatment for controlled inflation. After bipolar electric charging of the voids and evaporation of electrodes, the FEP films show piezoelectric d₃₃ coefficients up to 50 pC/N. The present physical foaming process generates cellular fluoropolymer piezoelectret films with usually only one single void across the film thickness.

Polytetrafluoroethylene piezoelectrets prepared by sintering process

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) films with a void structure are prepared by a sintering process. Such void PTFE films are piezoelectric after proper corona charging. The quasi-static piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficients up to 250 pC/N are achieved for the samples which were made of compact and biaxial-tension porous PTFE layers. Pre-ageing treatment is an effective method to further improve the thermal stability. For the samples with pre-ageing treatment, the reduction of the d ₃₃ coefficients is around 2% per day when exposed to 120 °C.     

Fluoroethylenepropylene ferroelectrets with patterned microstructure and high, thermally stable piezoelectricity

Layered fluoroethylenepropylene (FEP) ferroelectret films were prepared from sheets of FEP films by template-patterning followed by a fusion-bonding process and contact charging. The layered ferroelectret films show consistency and regularity in their void structures and good bonding of the layers. For films composed of two 12.5???m thick FEP layers and a typical void of 60???m height, the critical voltage necessary for the built-up of the ??macro-dipoles?? in the inner voids is approximately 800 V. At room temperature, Young??s modulus in the thickness direction, determined from dielectric resonance spectra of the fabricated films with a typical thickness of 85???m, is about 0.21 MPa. Initial quasistatic piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficients of samples contact charged at a peak voltage of 1500 V are in the range of 1000?C3000 pC/N. From these, ferroelectrets with high quasistatic and dynamic (up to 20 kHz) d ₃₃ coefficients of up to 1000 pC/N and 400 pC/N, respectively, which are thermally stable at 120°C, can be obtained by proper annealing treatment. This constitutes a significant improvement compared to previous results.     

Piezoelectric performance of fluor polymer sandwiches with different void structures

Film sandwiches, consisting of two outer layers of fluoroethylenepropylene and one middle layer of patterned porous polytetrafluoroethylene, were prepared by patterning and fusion bonding. Contact charging was conducted to render the films piezoelectric. The critical voltage to trigger air breakdown in the inner voids in the fabricated films was investigated. The piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficients were measured employing the quasistatic method and dielectric resonance spectrum. The results show that the critical voltage for air breakdown in the inner voids is associated with the void microstructure of the films. For the films with patterning factors of?0%, 25% and?44%, the critical values are?300, 230?and 230?kV/cm, respectively. With an increase in the patterning factor, both the piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficients determined from the dielectric resonance spectra and those determined from quasistatic measurements increase, which might be due to a decrease in Young??s modulus for the films. The nonlinearity of d ₃₃ becomes increasingly obvious as the patterning factor increases.     

Three-layer piezoelectrets from fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP) copolymer films

A process for preparing three-layer piezoelectrets from fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP) copolymer films is introduced. Samples are made from commercial FEP films by means of laser cutting, laser bonding, electrode evaporation, and high-field poling. The observed dielectric-resonance spectra demonstrate the piezoelectricity of the FEP sandwiches. Piezoelectric d ₃₃ coefficients up to a few hundred pC/N are achieved. Charging at elevated temperatures can increase the thermal stability of the piezoelectrets. Isothermal experiments for approximately 15 min demonstrate that samples charged at 140°C keep their piezoelectric activity up to at least 120°C and retain 70% of their initial d ₃₃ even at 130°C. Acoustical measurements show a relatively flat frequency response in the range between 300 Hz and 20 kHz.
