Abstract

In the previous investigation, piezoelectric properties of the ‘Aligned-type’ in which the piezoelectric-ceramic particles are formed in linear aggregates in the rubber, remarkable piezoelectric properties were confirmed. In this investigation, to further enhance the piezoelectric properties of the Aligned-type, the influence of the matrix properties was investigated. The properties on which we focused were the dielectric constant and the Young’s modulus. Four kinds of matrix materials whose dielectric constant and Young’s modulus are different from each other; Silicone gel, Silicone rubber, Urethane rubber and Poly-methyl-methacrylate were investigated. As a result of measurement of the piezoelectric strain constant d33 of the Aligned-Type, it was confirmed that though the influence of the dielectric constant of the matrix material was small, the lower the Young’s modulus of the matrix was, the higher d33 was.
