註釋This chapter describes the development and properties of novel functional composite materials consisting of aligned piezo-ceramic particles or fibers in a polymeric matrix, which can be fully integrated in thermoset or thermoplastic products. The materials have a low potential for applications requiring actuation but have attractive sensorial and energy harvesting properties. The new composites combine special functionalities with easy processing and adequate mechanical properties close to those of the polymer matrix. Such composite materials may find use in applications such as integrated pressure sensors and energy harvesting devices, which can create a number of new opportunities for the design domain.
