Abstract

The fabrication process and characteristics of a piezoelectric paper made with cellulose are investigated in the present paper. Since cellulose has merits in terms of biodegradability, biocompatibility, abundance in nature, lightweight and cheap, piezoelectric paper can bring a broad technological impact in many areas, for example, sensors, actuators, speakers, microphones and microelectromechanical systems. Mechanical properties and piezoelectric charge constants of the fabricated piezoelectric paper showed large improvements compared with existing EAPap based on commercial cellophane. The improved characteristics of the piezoelectric paper provide the potential for acoustic applications. Some preliminary device demonstrations are presented.
