KF piezo

Material with endless possibilities

is a polymer ferroelectric material that Kureha Corporation has succeeded in industrializing for the first time in the world. Compared to quartz and ferroelectric ceramics, , which is a resin film, is flexible and has good workability, and is used as a sensor material and speaker material.

Features

is made by filming , stretching it, and applying high voltage.
It is a unique material that exhibits remarkable piezoelectricity and pyroelectricity in the molecular structure of the film itself.
The characteristics of generating electricity when force, distortion, and heat are applied are utilized in various sensors. It was also installed in the space dust sensor of JAXA's space sailing ship "Icarus".

is made from vinylidene fluoride resin and has the following characteristics.
