Limitations of ceramic piezomaterials (brittleness, toxicity of lead-containing samples, difficulties of complicated shapes preparations, etc.) call for the research in the field of piezoelectric polymers. One of them is polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). It could be prepared in various forms: thin films, bulk samples, fibers. PVDF fibers attract the most attention because of high flexibility, lightweight, mechanical stability, chemical inertness. Properties of PVDF fibers can be tuned using dopant material: ceramic particles, metal nanoparticles, graphite materials as graphene oxide or carbon nanotubes (CNT).
