Poly(vinylidene fluoride) is a polymer that exhibits piezoelectric properties, making it useful in various and development applications. It functions as a material for the fabrication of sensors, actuators, and transducers due to its ability to convert mechanical energy into electrical signals and vice versa. At the molecular level, the polymer′s structure allows for the alignment of dipoles in response to mechanical stress, resulting in the generation of an electric field. This unique mechanism of action enables the polymer to be used in the development of devices for pressure sensing, energy harvesting, and acoustic imaging. Its piezoelectric behavior may be suitable for use in the production of smart materials and structures for diverse engineering and scientific purposes.
