Abstract
Piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) produces stable electrical signals in response to external mechanical stimuli and holds promise in the fields of flexible sensors and smart wearable devices. In practice, a high-performance PENG with a straightforward structure and exceptional reliability is deeply desired. This study optimally synthesizes piezoelectric composites comprising polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) incorporated with barium titanate (BTO) nanoparticles (NPs) and fabricated a PENG with heightened sensitivity by using the electrospinning technique. The polar β-phase content of the dual-optimized BTO-PVDF (barium titanate and polyvinylidene fluoride) electrospun fiber reaches up to 82.39%. In the bending mode, it achieves a remarkable maximum open-circuit voltage of 19.152 V, a transferred charge of 8.058 nC, and an output voltage per unit area of 2.128 V cm- 2. Under vertical pressure conditions, the BP-PENG exhibits an impressive voltage of 12.361 V while the force is 2.156 N, demonstrating a notable pressure sensing sensitivity of 5.159 V kPa-1, with an excellent linear relationship. Furthermore, the BP-PENG displays sensitive sensing features in monitoring hand movements. The sensitive response and high performance make it promising for applications in human motion monitoring and smart wearable devices.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:1096. [PMID: 36985990 PMCID: PMC10056420 DOI: 10.3390/nano13061096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Research on the rheological performance and mechanism of polymer nanocomposites (PNCs), mainly focuses on non-polar polymer matrices, but rarely on strongly polar ones. To fill this gap, this paper explores the influence of nanofillers on the rheological properties of poly (vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF). The effects of particle diameter and content on the microstructure, rheology, crystallization, and mechanical properties of PVDF/SiO2 were analyzed, by TEM, DLS, DMA, and DSC. The results show that nanoparticles can greatly reduce the entanglement degree and viscosity of PVDF (up to 76%), without affecting the hydrogen bonds of the matrix, which can be explained by selective adsorption theory. Moreover, uniformly dispersed nanoparticles can promote the crystallization and mechanical properties of PVDF. In summary, the viscosity regulation mechanism of nanoparticles for non-polar polymers, is also applicable to PVDF, with strong polarity, which is of great value for exploring the rheological behavior of PNCs and guiding the process of polymers.

Surface modification of polyether ether ketone implant with a novel nanocomposite coating containing poly (vinylidene fluoride) toward improving piezoelectric and bioactivity performance. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 222:113098. [PMID: 36529036 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.113098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2022] [Revised: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is an appropriate biomaterial for orthopedic implant applications due to its superior mechanical properties, chemical resistance, nontoxicity, and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility. Unfortunately, the inherent bio-inertness of PEEK restricted its application and required some modification to provide better bioactivity. Besides it, the generated electrical signals in the bone due to its piezoelectricity features have a vital role in regulating bone repair and regeneration. We aimed to modify the surface of PEEK with a dual-functionality nanocomposite that provides surface bioactivity and simulates the piezoelectricity of bone. So, we introduced a novel piezoelectric-bioactive nanocomposite of dispersed poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) in a sulfonated PEEK (SPEEK) matrix containing Nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) and Carbon nanofiber (CNF) fillers for coating on PEEK substrate to improve its biological activity and simulate the electrical microenvironment for bone tissue. Furthermore, sulfonation of the PEEK surface was conducted as an intermediate layer to prepare better adhesion between the coating nanocomposite and the PEEK sublayer. Surface and cross-section morphology, apatite formation, and cell attachment were investigated on the different treated PEEK surfaces using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). Also, piezoelectric performance, electrical conductivity, contact angle, and mechanical properties were examined on the prepared samples. Moreover, cell viability and cell morphology were investigated for biological evaluation with human osteoblast-like MG-63 cells. Collectively, the hydrophilicity of modified PEEK (mPEEK) coated with nanocomposite was improved due to the synergistic effects of SPEEK functional groups and nHA. Also, comprehensive investigation on the mPEEK treated with nanocomposite indicated a noticeably better bone-like apatite formation, cell proliferation, and cell attachments in the presence of nHA. The transfer of induced piezoelectric charges from dispersed PVDF in the matrix to the surface of nanocomposite containing 2 wt% of CNF increased output voltage to 1893 mV. On the other hand, the presence of CNF in nanocomposites enhanced tensile strength and Young's modulus by 92% and 117%, respectively.

Abstract
Piezoelectric materials are widely referred to as "smart" materials because they can transduce mechanical pressure acting on them to electrical signals and vice versa. They are extensively utilized in harvesting mechanical energy from vibrations, human motion, mechanical loads, etc., and converting them into electrical energy for low power devices. Piezoelectric transduction offers high scalability, simple device designs, and high-power densities compared to electro-magnetic/static and triboelectric transducers. This review aims to give a holistic overview of recent developments in piezoelectric nanostructured materials, polymers, polymer nanocomposites, and piezoelectric films for implementation in energy harvesting. The progress in fabrication techniques, morphology, piezoelectric properties, energy harvesting performance, and underpinning fundamental mechanisms for each class of materials, including polymer nanocomposites using conducting, non-conducting, and hybrid fillers are discussed. The emergent application horizon of piezoelectric energy harvesters particularly for wireless devices and self-powered sensors is highlighted, and the current challenges and future prospects are critically discussed.

Abstract
Piezoelectric fibers have an important role in wearable technology as energy generators and sensors. A series of hybrid nanocomposite piezoelectric fibers of polyinylidene fluoride (PVDF) loaded with barium–titanium oxide (BT) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were prepared via the melt spinning method. Our previous studies show that high-performance fibers with 84% of the electroactive β-phase in the PVDF generated a peak output voltage up to 1.3 V and a power density of 3 W kg−1. Herein, the dynamic mechanical and creep behavior of these fibers were investigated to evaluate their durability and piezoelectric performance. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) was used to provide phenomenological information regarding the viscoelastic properties of the fibers in the longitudinal direction. DSC and SEM were employed to characterize the crystalline structure of the samples. The storage modulus and the loss tangent increased by increasing the frequency over the temperature range (−50 to 150 °C) for all of the fibers. The storage modulus of the PVDF/rGO nanocomposite fibers had a higher value (7.5 GPa) in comparison with other fibers. The creep and creep recovery behavior of the PVDF/nanofillers in the nanocomposite fibers have been explored in the linear viscoelastic region at three different temperatures (10–130 °C). In the PVDF/rGO nanocomposite fibers, strong sheet/matrix interfacial interaction restricted the mobility of the polymer chains, which led to a higher modulus at temperatures 60 and 130 °C.

Abstract
Poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) has become the polymer matrix of choice for fabrication of wearable electronics and physiological monitoring devices. Despite possessing a high piezoelectric constant, additives are required to increase the charge transfer from PVDF matrix to connected signal readout units. Many of these additives also stabilize the β-phase of PVDF, which is associated with highest piezoelectric coefficients. However, most of the additives used are often brittle ceramic-phase materials resulting in decreased flexibility of the devices and offsetting the gain in β-phase content. Intrinsically conducting polymers (ICP), on the other hand, are ideal candidates to improve the device-related properties of PVDF, due to their higher flexibility than ceramic fillers as well as ability to form conducting network in PVDF membranes. This work reports the performance and device feasibility of PVDF-polycarbazole (PCZ) electrospun nanofiber membranes. A higher β-phase was observed by FTIR spectroscopy in PVDF/PCZ compared to other PVDF phases. Moreover, a higher open-circuit potential was recorded over PVDF/polyaniline composites, which were studied for comparison. The addition of PCZ reduced the flexibility of pure PVDF nanofibers by 20% only. Besides, the work investigated the bacterial biofouling and cell compatibility of the matrix, as essential properties to examine any putative medical device application. PVDF/PCZ membranes were then used to develop a nanogenerator, which was capable of instantly lighting an entire LED array employing the rectified output power, and charged up a 2.2 μF capacitors using a bridge rectifier through a vertical compressive force applied periodically. Finally, the nanogenerator demonstrated electrical energy harvesting from movements of various parts of the human body, such as toe and heel movement and wrist bending. In conclusion, PCZ can be considered as an attractive, biocompatible, and anti-biofouling conducting polymer for electrical actuation and flexible electronic device applications.

Abstract
Self-healing on the engineering applications is smart, decisive research for prolonging the life span of the materials and the innovations have been mounting still smarter. Connecting to advancements in self-healing carriers, in altering the chemical structure by optimizing the brittleness for self-healing performance and introducing the bio-degradability, for the first time TPS was blended to PVDF for the synthesis of nanofibers, as carriers of a vinyl ester (VE) resin (medication), by the coaxial electrospinning technique. TPS was mechanically mixed with PVDF base polymer and optimized the TPS content (10 wt%) based on mechanical performance. The novel nanofibers were characterized via field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermal, moisture analysis, and a mechanical line with FESEM and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis studied the self-healing. The TPS/PVDF fibers having hydrogen bonding and increased the crystallinity (40.57 → 44.12%) and the diameter (115 → 184 nm) along with the surface roughness of the fibers with increasing the TPS content. Microanalysis presented the flow-out of the VE resin at the scratched parts in the pierced fibers; interestingly, after some time, the etched part was cured automatically by the curing of the spread resin. Mechanical stretching of the nanofibers in the tensile tests up in the plastic region showed a decrement in the elasticity (TPS/PVDF fibers) and an increment in the brittle nature (cured VE resin) with the increase in Young’s modulus at each stretching, clearly elucidating the healing performance.

Abstract
With the increase of interest in the application of piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) in nanogenerators (NGs), sensors, and microdevices, the most efficient and suitable methods of their synthesis are being pursued. Electrospinning is an effective method to prepare higher content β-phase PVDF nanofiber films without additional high voltage poling or mechanical stretching, and thus, it is considered an economically viable and relatively simple method. This work discusses the parameters affecting the preparation of the desired phase of the PVDF film with a higher electrical output. The design and selection of optimum preparation conditions such as solution concentration, solvents, the molecular weight of PVDF, and others lead to electrical properties and performance enhancement in the NG, sensor, and other applications. Additionally, the effect of the nanoparticle additives that showed efficient improvements in the PVDF films was discussed as well. For instance, additives of BaTiO3, carbon nanotubes, graphene, nanoclays, and others are summarized to show their contributions to the higher piezo response in the electrospun PVDF. The recently reported applications of electrospun PVDF films are also analyzed in this review paper.

Abstract
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-based piezoelectric materials are promising candidates for sensors, transducers, and actuators, due to several distinctive characteristics such as good flexibility, easy processability, and high mechanical resistance. In the present work, PVDF-based nanocomposites loaded with BaTiO3 nanoparticles (NPs) of various weight fractions were prepared by the electrospinning technique and used for the fabrication of a flexible piezoelectric pressure tactile sensor (PPTS). The addition (5, 10, and 20 wt %) of piezoelectric BaTiO3 NPs improves the piezoelectric performance, especially the β phase crystals of PVDF/BaTiO3 (10 wt %) nanocomposites that can reach 91.0%. In addition, the mechanical strength of PVDF/BaTiO3 nanocomposites is up to 26.7 MPa, which is an increase of 66% compared to neat PVDF. It should be emphasized that the elongation at break continuously increases from 71% to 153% with increasing BaTiO3 NPs. More importantly, the PPTS (piezoelectric pressure tactile sensor) with the combination of electrospun PVDF/BaTiO3 nanocomposite membranes and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) displays excellent flexibility and linear response to external mechanical force. The flexible PPTS devices capable of detecting different music sounds have potential uses in wide fields, such as voice recognition, speech therapy, and ultrasound imaging.

Abstract
Damage is a key problem that limits the application of polymer membranes. In this paper, conductive carbon black (CB) and silicon dioxide (SiO2)-reinforced polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composites were prepared using a solution mixing method. Through a uniaxial tensile test, the fracture and damage characteristics of the material were analyzed. When the structure had inevitable notch damage, changing the notch angle was very helpful for the material to bear more load. In addition, when there were two kinds of fillers in the PVDF matrix at the same time, there was an interaction between particles. The microstructure of the composite was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. The experimental results indicate that, when the ratio of CB:SiO2:PVDF was 1:4:95, the general mechanical properties of the composite were the best.
