Relaxor-ferroelectric and High-k Terpolymers

Additional CTFE or CFE monomer units are introduced into the well-organized VDF-TrFE chains, which improve dipole mobility, and thus induce unique relaxor ferroelectric properties.

Piezotech® RT

P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) or P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) are unique relaxor ferroelectric polymers that exhibit high electrostrictive strain and high dielectric constants.


  • High deformation (directly proportional to the applied electric field squared, E²)

  • High elastic energy

  • High stress.

Piezotech® RT Terpolymer Powders

Piezotech® RT terpolymer powders are available with either CFE or CTFE as the termonomer. 

Specific composition or molecular weight can be produced upon request.
