ElectroMechanical Film (EMFi) — a new multipurpose electret material
TL;DR: The ElectroMechanical Film (EMFi) as mentioned in this paper is a thin, cellular, biaxially oriented polypropylene film that can be used as an electret, having a special voided internal structure and high resistivity, it is capable of storing large permanent charge.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a closed-cell microporous polypropylene foams are shown to exhibit piezoelectric resonance modes in the dielectric function, coupled with a large anisotropy in the electromechanical and elastic material properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Piezo- and pyroelectricity of a polymer-foam space-charge electret
Gerhard S. Neugschwandtner,Reinhard Schwödiauer,Simona Bauer-Gogonea,Siegfried Bauer,Mika Paajanen,Jukka Lekkala +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a closed-cell polypropylene polymer foams with a quasistatic piezoelectric d33 coefficient about 250 pC/N and a dynamic d33 coefficients of 140 pC /N at 600 kHz were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the electromechanical film (EMFi)
TL;DR: In this paper, the porous EMFi electret film is modelled using a simplified one air gap structure and linear models for the sensor and actuator thickness operation modes of the film are identical.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electromechanical modeling and properties of the electret film EMFI
TL;DR: In this article, a simplified electromechanical film is modeled using a simplified structure, which shows the reciprocity of the sensor and actuator operation models, and the value of the transducer constant depends on the ambient temperature and increases at higher temperatures.
