Piezoelectric PVDF Sheet Description
Piezoelectric PVDF Sheet is a specialized material that combines the properties of PVDF with piezoelectric capabilities. When subjected to mechanical stress, the PVDF sheet generates an electrical charge. Conversely, applying an electrical field to the sheet causes it to deform mechanically. This property makes it useful for sensors and actuators. PVDF is a thermoplastic fluoropolymer that offers good flexibility, making it suitable for various applications where bending and shaping are required. It is also durable and resistant to wear and tear. PVDF is highly resistant to chemicals, acids, and bases, ensuring stability and longevity in harsh environments. The material is relatively light, which is beneficial in applications where weight is a concern.
