Extrusion of poly(vinylidene fluoride) filaments : effect of the processing conditions and conductive inner core on the electroactive phase content and mechanical properties

The phase transformation from the α- to the electroactive β-phase of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) extruded filaments submitted to different stretching conditions was investigated. Sample filaments of α-PVDF thermoplastic were extruded and stretched uniaxially at different temperatures (80 ºC to...
