Poling of ß-poly(vinylidene fluoride): dielectric and IR spectroscopy studies

ß-Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (ß-PVDF) exhibits ferroelectric properties due to the special arrangement of the chain units in the crystalline phase. The piezoelectric properties of the material can be optimised by poling the original stretched film. The main effect of the poling process is the alignme...
