(100 − x)PVDF–(x) PZT (PVDF: Polyvinylidene Difluoride and PZT: Lead Zirconate Titanate) composite was prepared in 0–3 connectivity by the solvent casting methods. The piezoelectric co-efficient is found to be increased with the increase in PZT concentration in the PVDF matrix. It is due to the increase of β phase of PVDF as well as lattice strain in PZT. The incorporation of PZT ceramics in the PVDF matrix causes an increase in storage loss modulus of the sample. The tanδ decreases due to incorporation of PZT ceramics in the PVDF matrix. The piezoelectric and mechanical properties are found to be increased in the PVDF-PZT composite compare to that of PVDF. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
