TPU was from Eastman Chem.Co (grade TS8005), based on an hydroxylated polyester from adipic
acid, 1,4 butanediol and monoethyleneglycol and methyldiisocyanate. The morphology,
crystallographic structure and piezoelectric properties of the nanofibers were analyzed by scanning
electron microscopy (SEM), wide angle x-ray (WAXS), impedance spectroscopy and piezoresponse
Force Microscopy (PFM) , respectively. The thermal properties and domain morphology of the TPU
was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and atomic force microscopy (AFM),
respectively. The nanocomposites were prepared by dissolving the TPU in dimethylformamide,
using several weight % of BaTiO3 nanofibers. The piezoelectric properties of the nanocomposites
were measured by a Ressonance Method and it showed a potential of use of these materials as
piezoelectric sensors.
Keywords: Nanocomposites, piezoelectricity, TPU, BaTiO3.
