Abstract

Poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene; P(VDF-TrFE)) is one of the most promising electroactive polymers with numerous application potentials in many fields of industry. Because of its good electro-mechanical properties P(VDF-TrFE) has been used for a number of sensors and actuators and also can be used for monitoring composite structure behaviors as a sensor. Three different ways (Electrical poling, annealing-cooling, and pressing) to enhance ${\beta}$-phase of P(VDF-TrFE) film were carried out. A microscopic analysis was conducted using X-ray diffraction to investigate the effect of such treatments on piezoelectric properties of P(VDF-TrFE) film. From the results, poling, annealing-cooling, and pressing were all effective to enhance ${\beta}$ crystallinity of P(VDF-TrFE) film and the maximum increase rate was 62.80% from 45.29% of the control group.

Poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene; P(VDF-TrFE))는 여러 분야에서 다양한 형태로 활용되고 있는 유망한 전기활성고분자이다. 이 재료는 전기-기계적 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 다양한 형태의 센서와 구동기로 활용되고 있으며, 복합재료 구조의 거동을 관찰하는 센서로도 활용이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 세 가지 방법; (1) 전기적 폴링, (2) 어닐링-냉각, (3) 압축을 사용하여 P(VDF-TrFE) 공중합체 필름의 ${\beta}$ 상 결정구조 향상시켜 센서로서의 특성을 강화하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. P(VDF-TrFE) 필름에 대한 각 방법의 효과를 조사하기 위해 X-선 회절을 통한 미세구조분석을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 전기적 폴링, 어닐링-냉각, 그리고 압축 방법 모두 P(VDF-TrFE) 필름의 ${\beta}$ 상 결정구조 향상에 효과적이었으며 대조군 (45.29%)대비 최대 62.80%까지 ${\beta}$ 상 결정도가 향상됐다.
