Sulphoaluminate cement and Lead Niobium-Magnesium Zirconate Titanate ceramic [P(MN)]ZT were used as matrix and functional phase respectively to fabricate 1-3-2 cement-based piezoelectric composites by dice and filling technique. The influences of base thickness on piezoelectric properties, electromechanical properties and acoustic impedance properties of the composites were discussed. The results show that as the base thickness increases, the piezoelectric stain factor d33 increases gradually, while the piezoelectric voltage factor g33 decreases. The planar electromechanical coupling coefficient Kp exhibits the trend of decrease, while the thickness electromechanical coupling coefficient Kt and acoustic impedance show the increasing trend. The mechanical quality factor Qm reaches the minimum (1.49) when base thickness is 2.00 mm. The results reveal that the 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite will be suitable for application by changing the base thickness.

Electromechanical coupling coefficient of cement-based piezoelectric composites affected by pozzolanic materials and poling field are investigated. Specimens, through a pressure approach, are manufactured by combining PZT powders and cement-based binder with the same volume fraction. Pozzolanic materials including fly ash, slag and silica fume replace 20% cement in the binder. Three poling fields are considered to induce piezoelectricity of 0-3 cement-based composites. Results show that electromechanical coupling coefficients do not have many fluctuations in terms of material ages for any cement-pozzolanic piezoelectric composites. With the same volumetric substitutes of pozzolanic materials, the electromechanical coupling coefficient with pozzolanic materials except fly ash is lower than that with plain cement, especially for silica fume having a 7.9% decrease. Raising poling field can increase electromechanical coupling coefficients. Polarization of cement-based piezoelectric composites containing silica fume in low poling fields such as 0.5kV/mm and 1kV/mm is not easy to complete.

Abstract In this study, 3-3 type cement-based piezoelectric composites were prepared by casting Portland cement paste in porous lead zirconate titanate (PZT) ceramics, then the Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) of N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) solvent with concentration of 50-200 mg/ml was utilized to modify the PZT-PC composites. The influence of PVDF concentration on the density, microstructure, dielectric, piezoelectric and electromechanical properties were investigated. The results indicate that the density of PZT-PC composites increased gradually with PVDF concentration for the increasing combined weight of PVDF with the composites. The introduction of PVDF has also contributed to the reduction of leakage current during the poling and testing process, which led to increased relative permittivity εr and longitudinal piezoelectric strain coefficient d33, while the dielectric loss tanδ and longitudinal piezoelectric voltage coefficient g33 demonstrated an opposite changing trend. Both the thickness electromechanical coupling coefficient Kt and planar electromechanical coupling coefficient Kp of the PZT-PC composites increased with PVDF concentration. The acoustic impedance (Z) of PVDF modified PZT-PC composites ranged from 6.89 to 7.65 MRayls, making it suitable for applications in the health monitoring of civil engineering.

Abstract In this work, the 1–3 connectivity piezoelectric ceramic–polymer composites have been fabricated by a viscous-polymer processing, where 0.90Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3–0.05Pb(Mn1/3Sb2/3)O3–0.05Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PZT–PMS–PZN) fibers with 0.5 volume fraction were aligned in epoxy matrix. The sintered PZT fibers, with average diameter of 300 μm and aspect ratio (height/diameter) higher than 3, all showed a pure perovskite phase structure and highly dense morphology. The dielectric, piezoelectric, ferroelectric properties and the vibration modes of the 1–3 composites were measured and demonstrated in comparison with that of the monolithic piezoelectric ceramics. The results confirmed that the 1–3 composites possessed a low acoustic impedance (Z) of 13 MRayl and a high thickness coupling coefficient (k t) of 0.59, in addition, only single thickness vibration mode with the resonance frequency over 1.5 MHz was observed. With temperature elevation, the properties including dielectric constant εr , k t, the ratio of k t to k p (k t/k p) and the acoustic impedance (Z) increase, while the planar electromechanical coupling coefficient (k p) show opposite temperature dependence. Under test temperature of 100°C, the 1–3 composites still present excellent temperature stability with increased k t/k p ratio up to 3.6. The researches on temperature-dependent properties of the 1–3 composites are critical for improving its applications in various environments.

The modified behavior of the phase transition temperatures (TO-T and/or TC) between orthorhombic (O), tetragonal (T) and cubic (C) that caused by doping Sb5+ in (Li0.052Na0.493K0.455)(Nb1-xSbx)O3 (LNKNSx) ceramics was reported in the present investigation. The results show that differing from the insensitive TO-T to the Sb5+ content, TC splits into two peaks TCI and TCII when doping Sb5+. The decreased TCI by raising x may be ascribed to the Sb-rich grains and the settled TCII round 480 °C resulting from the Sb-lack ones. The enhanced piezoelectric coefficient d33 value of 263 pC/N and planar mode electromechanical coupling coefficient kp value of 42.5% at x=0.052 can be attributed to the polymorphic phase boundary (PPB) behavior with an appropriate ratio between T and O phases without any second phase.
