Abstract

One of the crucial issues in the application of smart materials to concrete structure is the consistency between them and the host concrete materials. The development of cement based piezoelectric composites is proposed for solving the mismatch problem. The 0-3 cement based piezoelectric composite is fabricated, which have a uniform distribution of piezoelectric ceramic particles and a dense inner structure. The test results show that the poling voltage of the composite is reduced drastically and the piezoelectric properties of the composite are superior to those of the 0-3 polymer/ceramic piezoelectric composite in the same condition.
