Help on sourcing informations and sources regarding piezoelectric materials
Hey guys,
My friend and I are doing research into piezoelectric materials, so far we have explored potassium sodium tartrate and various filaments which have
slight documented properties (eg; PVDF).
We are curious on what materials are easy to synthesize, have fair amounts of documentation, and are easily accessible to the amateur chemist (eg;
cheap, not impossible to find) which have piezoelectric properties.
If nothing else, we would love to be given a lead towards source material.
Thanks

here is how I normally start ....
have a look at the links below, and any references that look interesting.

we want to create a mat which can directly harvest the electricity from being stepped on.

PVDF. Its pliable and easily formed into large sheets. All of the other piezo materials I'm aware of are rigid and brittle.
