Abstract :
Poled polyvinylidene fluoride with trifluoroethylene P(VDF/TrFE) and cellular polypropylene have a high potential for piezoelectric sensor and transducer applications. The polymers were used to prepare sensor arrays for multi touch enabled touch pads used in input devices for human computer communication and 3D-modelling.
