The 23 wt% polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/15 wt% polyurethane (PU) fibers were electrospun using the conjugated nozzle at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/h and an electric field of 1 kV/cm. The formation of ${\beta}$ crystal phase in the PVDF and the PVDF/PU fibers was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. After electrospinning, the asspun fibers were immersed in a boiling water and then dried at $100^{\circ}C$ in a convection oven to make a crimp phenomenon. The crimps with a diameter of $2.0{\pm}0.08{\mu}m$ were observed for the PVDF/PU fibers after hydrothermal treatment without sacrificing the extent of ${\beta}$ crystal phase. All the PU, PVDF and PVDF/PU fibers exhibited average cell viability of more than 98 %. The cell proliferation results suggested that L-929 cells adhered well to the PU, PVDF and PVDF/PU fibers and proliferated continuously with increasing time, indicating that the PVDF/PU fibers are highly applicable to the biomedical applications.

Polyvinylidene fluoride( : PVDF) has piezoelectric and pyroelectric. The ${\beta}-PVDF$ manufactured by induced-electric field. In accordance to increasing induced-electric field, the 530 $cm^{-1}$ peak decrease, whereas $510cm^{-1}$ peak increase. The dielectric constant of PVDF thin film is 6.8 and 10 MV/m induced-PVDF thin film is 9.4. The dielectric relaxation characteristic of PVDF thin films correspond to Debye's theory.

PVDF as a semicrystal polymer, having a structure with C-F dipole moments, has been widely investigated because of its excellent chemical stability, mechanical strength, and ferroelectricity. In this study, ferroelectic ${\beta}$ type - PVDF layer was prepared by using an electrostatic spray deposition method and the effects of the addition of Ni-nitrate in precursor solution on the properties of PVDF layer were evaluated. Crystallinity and chemical structure of the PVDF layer were analyzed by a X-ray diffraction and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer. Surface structure and fractured cross section of the layer were examined by a field emission-scanning electron microscope. LCR meter was used to obtain the dielectric properties of the layer. As the addition of an inorganic metal salt in PVDF sol, ${\beta}$ type - PVDF crystals were appeared in the hydrated metal salts doped-layer since the strong hydrogen bondings $(O-H{\cdots}F-C)_n$ due to high polarity of OH- were formed.

The poling characteristics of PVDF (poly(vinylidene fluoride)) film was investigated by measuring the electric voltage generated by the external load for the distributed tactile sensor applications. The poling conditions for the PVDF films were controlled by changing temperature and electric field, and the resulting crystal structure of the $\beta$-phase crystal was confirmed by FT-IR, DSC, and XRD experiments. The $\beta$-phase crystal was increased with the poling temperature and poling voltage, and subsequently the permittivity of the Poled PVDF films was increased. Finally, the prototype tactile sensor was tested by a 8 $\times$ 8 may circuit exhibiting high voltage signal for the highly poled PVDF films.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the fabrication of $\beta$-PVDF($\beta$-Polyvinylidene fluoride, $\beta$-PVF2) organic thin films through the vapor deposition method and to investigate the ultrasonic response properties of the organic thin films produced. Vapor deposition was performed under the following conditions : the temperature of evaporator, the applied electric field and the pressure of reaction chamber were $270^{\circ}C$, 142.4 kV/cm and $2.0{\times}10^{-5}\;Torr$, respectively. The results showed that the degree of crystallinity increased from 47% to 67.8% with an increase in the substrate temperature. In the case of a sensor response characteristic by varying the distance from 1cm to 100cm, the output voltage decreased from 0.615V to 0.4V.

Composite nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning and thermal treatment from poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-$SiO_2$ blend solution. The nanofibers were stacked on layers to produce fully interconnected pores. TEM micrographs and EDX spectra confirmed the presence of $SiO_2$ in the composite nanofibers. The porosity of nanofibers was effectively enhanced by the introduction of electrospinning technique. ATR-FTIR and XRD results revealed that PVDF in the composite nanofibers exhibited the mixture crystal structure of ${\alpha}$-phase and ${\beta}$-phase. The crystal structure of ${\alpha}$-phase and crystallinity increased by the thermal treatment. In addition, the mechanical properties, thermal stability and hydrophobicity were markedly amplified by the thermal treatment.

As the rapid development of the electronics, the demand for portable electronics and wireless sensors is growing faster, also with the increased needs of one material which can power it automatically, and then power the electrical devices. The piezoelectric effect of the PVDF material can be used for this. So in this paper, PVDF multilayer films were made for this aim. Make the PVDF / DMAc solution in the 10% concentration; use the spin coater technique to make films with the optimum process parameters: the spin rate is 1260rpm; the spin time is 70s; the dry temperature is 100$^{\circ}C$; the dry time is 30mins. And also, for obtaining the higher $\beta$-phase crystallinity, put the Ca(NH3)2.4H2O into the PVDF / DMAc solution system.

In this paper, the dielectric properties of fabricated Polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF, $PVF_2$) thin film with substrate temperature from 30 to at vapor deposition. The dielectric properties of PVDF thin film had been studied in the frequency range from 10Hz to 4MHz at measuring temperature between 20 and $100^{/circ}C$. The anomalous increasing in dielectric constant and dielectric loss at low frequencies and high temperature was described for PVDF thin film containing ion impurities. In particularly, ion mobility of fabricated PVDF thin film at substrate temperature at $30^{/circ}C$ decrease from $2\times10^{-5}\;to\;3.07$\times10^{-7}cm^2/V.s$ On the other hand, ion density increase abruptly from 1.49\times$$10^{13}$ to $1.5\times$10^{16}$cm^{-3}$ In spite of decreasing of ion mobility, dielectric constants and dielectric loss for PVDF thin film increase rapidly with decreasing frequency and high temperature. It was concluded that the dielectric constants and dielectric loss was related to ion density than to ion mobility at low frequency and high temperatures.

In this paper studied was the piezoelectric properties of the $\beta$-PVDF organic thin films prepared by physical vapour deposition method. The molecular orientation of organic thin films was controlled by the application of an electric field and variation of substrate temperature during the evaporation process. Optimum conditions of manufacturing $\beta$-PVDF organic thin film by physical vapor deposition method is to keep at the substrate temperature of $80^{\circ}C$, at the applied electric field of 142.8 kV/cm. The voltage output coefficient increased from 1.39 to 7.04V increasing the force moment.
