Challenges and opportunities in piezoelectric polymers: Effect of oriented amorphous fraction in ferroelectric semicrystalline polymers

Elshad Allahyarov, Guanchun Rui, Lei Zhu, Philip L. Taylor, Qin Zou, Thumawadee Wongwirat, Yanfei Huang, Zhiwen Zhu

In ferroelectric polymers such as PVDF, more than 85 percent of the d31 piezoelectric coefficient arises from the oriented amorphous fraction through Poisson-ratio effects rather than from the polar crystals.

Claims

C1strongest claim

the crystal contribution to the piezoelectric strain coefficient d31 is determined to be less than 10%, primarily owing to the difficulty in changing the molecular bond lengths and bond angles. Instead, >85% contribution is from Poisson's ratio, which is closely related to the oriented amorphous fraction (OAF)

C2weakest assumption

That the electrostrictive conformation change observed in MD simulations of OAF chains quantitatively accounts for the measured macroscopic d31 without additional fitting parameters or unaccounted interfacial effects.

C3one line summary

Over 85% of the d31 piezoelectric coefficient in stretched ferroelectric polymers comes from electrostrictive conformation changes in the oriented amorphous fraction, not the crystalline phase.
