Piezolelectric Nanocomposite Materials for Mechanical Sensing and Energy Harvesting

This paper explores the design, fabrication, and application of piezoelectric nanocomposite materials, focusing on their utilization in mechanical sensing and energy harvesting. By embedding piezoelectric nanofibers within polymeric matrices, we have developed multifunctional materials with enhanced mechanical properties and significant piezoelectric responses. Two specific applications are highlighted: the integration of piezoelectric composites into prosthetic devices for self-sensing capabilities and the use of PZT (Lead Zirconate Titanate) nanofibers for energy harvesting. The results demonstrate that these materials are promising candidates for next-generation biomedical devices and energy-efficient systems.
