Abstract:

In this paper, we produced the 0-3 PZT/P(VDF-TFE) piezoelectric composite film with 80μm thickness using PZT piezoelectric ceramics and fluorine resin P(VDF-TFE) by weight 85/15 ingredients through the hot rolling machine and corona-discharge method. A sensor with 4cm×1.3cm area is designed and produced by using this film. We have carried out the breaking of a pencil lead pressed against an aluminum plate acoustic emission testing. The result shown that the sensor is with fast response and high sensitivity advantage, the sensor can be used as acoustic emission sensor. Meanwhile the sensor is very easy to use due to it is a soft film sensor.
