Naik, R.Rao, S.T.2020-03-302020-03-302019Materials Today: Proceedings, 2019, Vol.18, , pp.5107-5113https://idr.nitk.ac.in/handle/123456789/8839In this work, Zirconium oxide based PVDF nanocomposite films are fabricated by using solution casting method with varying zirconium oxide fractions (0, 1, 5 wt%). The crystalline structure of prepared nanocomposite films is studied by X-Ray diffraction (X-RD) and FTIR methods. To check surface morphology, SEM study is carried out. From this study, it is observed that zirconium filler is well dispersed in the PVDF matrix. The piezoelectric performance of the prepared film is analyzed. From this analysis, maximum output voltage of 0.61V is observed during mechanically finger tapping and releasing condition for 5% of zirconium filler content film. � 2019 Elsevier Ltd.
