ABSTRACTCurrently, smart structures utilize both polymeric sensor and PZT-based actuators. The benefit of self-sensing calls for the development of integrated actuator/sensor composites. This paper addresses the development of this new class of smart materials. Porous PZT ceramics were fabricated by several techniques. PVDF was subsequently infiltrated within the controlled porosity PZT. In addition, PVDF or its blends and PZT powders were in-situ processed to generate controlled piezo and mechanical property composites. Both actuating and sensing of this new class of composite materials were studied. The paper presents the processes-structure-property relationship of this new class of piezocomposites.

TiO2 hierarchical heterostructure photocatalyst was successfully fabricated through the in situ growth of Bi2MoO6 nanosheets on rough N–TiO2 nanorods with a bark-like surface. The structure–property relationship of this composite material were researched.
