Method of making a film from pyroelectric and isotropic piezoelectric polymer blends

摘要

A pyroelectric and isotropic piezoelectric polymeric film, the film being formed from a blend of polyvinylidene fluoride and at least one polymer miscible therewith at a temperature above the melting point of the polyvinylidene fluoride, and a process for preparing the film comprising forming the film, heating it to a temperature sufficient to render the film substantially amorphous, cooling at a rate and to a temperature sufficient to prevent crystallization, and polarizing the film to render same pyroelectric and isotropically piezoelectric.
