The Investigation of Electret Film Durability in Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) from a Certain Angle of their Application as Pressure Sensors

Abstract:

Article presents research methods and their results for 100μm polyethylene terephthalate PET film, from a certain angle of its application as pressure sensors. Film was polarized at 150V/μm electric field intensity in dwo different temperatures: 60°C and 90°C. Direction of polarization was measured by thermally stimulated depolarization current TSDC. Results shows presence of homo-and heterocharge. Relaxation was calculated by two methods: from relationship ln J (T) = const – W/kT and from relationship (T) = P (T) / J (T). Activation energy for heterocharge calculated by first relationship is 6.14 eV to 6.77 eV and its relaxation time in 24°C is ~1020 years. For second one relationship, relaxation time in 24°C is ~1035 years. Piezoelectric voltage in 33 direction is 74V for termination resistance 1014Ω and 30V for termination resistance 109Ωfor applied stress 10N/cm2 from 10 cm2 surface. Obtained results for studied PET film, encourage to use it in practice as pressure sensors.
