Self-Powered Piezoelectric Nano-Polymer Networks with Embedded Wireless Nodes for Distributed IoT Sensor Platforms
Abstract: Self-powered sensing systems are emerging as a promising solution for next-generation distributed Internet of Things (IoT) platforms, where lightweight, flexible, and low-maintenance devices are required for continuous monitoring. In this work, a self-powered piezoelectric nano-polymer network based on poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) reinforced with BaTiO₃ nanoparticles and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was developed for flexible wireless sensing applications. The composite was designed to combine mechanical flexibility, enhanced piezoelectric response, and real-time …

Computational Studies on PVDF-HFP/Li-salt Composite Electrolyte for Lithium-ion Batteries
Abstract: Density Functional Theory (DFT) is very useful method to study the geometrical, electronic, and other important properties of molecules. Parameters and required data of Poly(vinylidene fluoride-co- hexachloropropylene) (PVDF-HFP), lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) and polymer electrolyte (PVDF-HFP + LiTFSI) are calculated with the B3LYP functional and 6-31+G(d,p) and 6- 31++G(d,p) basis sets using Gaussian03. The optimized geometry, total energy, ionization potential, electron affinity, energy gap, and electronegativity were calculated. In result, the …

Energy Storage Properties of hy-BST3/PVDF Nanocomposite for Dielectric Capacitor Application
Abstract: In the present research work, we have synthesized the ferroelectric ceramic Ba0.7 Sr0.3TiO3 (BST3)/PVDF (Polyvinylidene difluoride). Polymer nanocomposites for energy storage applications, designed to synergistically combine the high dielectric permittivity of hydroxylated barium strontium titanate (hy-BST3) with the mechanical flexibility and electroactive properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF). Hydroxylated Barium Strontium Titanate (hy-BST3) has been synthesized using the sol-gel combustion method followed by surface hydroxylation using H2O2 to achieve nanoscale particles …
