Abstract

The preparation and properties of thick flexible three-phase composite films based on lead zirconium titanate (PZT) and various ferrites (nickel zinc ferrite (NZF) and cobalt ferrite (CF)) were reported in this study. Properties of three-phase composite films were compared with pure polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and PZT–PVDF films. X-ray diffraction data indicated the formation of well crystallized structure of PZT and NZF/CF phases, without the presence of undesirable phases. Scanning electron micrographs showed that the ceramic particles were dispersed homogeneously in the PVDF matrix and atomic force microscopy confirmed that the size of the particles is around 30 nm. Non-saturated hysteresis loops were evident in all samples due to the presence of highly conductive ferrite phases. Under magnetic field of 10 kOe, composite films exhibited a typical ferromagnetic response. Dielectric properties were investigated in the temperature range from −128 to 250 °C and frequency range of 400 Hz–1 MHz. The results showed that the value of dielectric constant of the PVDF/PZT/ferrite composites increased about 25% above the one obtained for pure PVDF.

  • PZT (lead zirconate titanate) is the typical piezoelectric material.

    “However, the typical material is the perovskite named lead zirconate titanate which is a polycrystalline monolithic piezoelectric ceramic known as PZT (Bobić et al., 2019).”

    From PIEZOELECTRIC ENERGY HARVESTING USING FOOTSTEPS (2023) · cites this paper as Bobić et al., 2019

    The Experimental procedure identifies PZT by its lead–zirconium–titanium formula, and the Results and discussion describes its perovskite structure and refers to ferrite–piezoelectric interfaces. These passages support identifying PZT as a piezoelectric perovskite material, but the paper does not establish that it is the typical piezoelectric material or describe it as a polycrystalline monolithic ceramic; it studies composite films instead. The retrieved passages have section labels but no page numbers. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
