Their ferroelectricity was studied by means of dielectric-hysteresis measurements. A remnant polarisation of up to 35 mC/m(2) and a coercive field of 75 MV/m were obtained. The piezoelectric d(33) coefficient and the pyroelectric coefficient of the films are reduced by annealing just below the melting region, but remain at about 3 pC/N and 8 muC/(m(2)K), respectively, during further heat treatment. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) and thermally stimulated depolarisation (TSD) were applied for investigating the conformational changes induced by melt-quenching, cold-drawing and annealing. The results indicate that the cold-drawn film mainly consists of a rigid amorphous phase which exhibits considerably lower conductivity, no glass transition and consequently no dielectric a relaxation. Instead, an a, relaxation is found, which is related to chain motions in regions of the rigid amorphous phase where the amide-group dipoles are not perfectly ordered. Annealing removes imperfectly ordered structures, but does not affect the ferroelectric polarisation. Therefore, it may be concluded that essentially the a, relaxation causes the thermally non-stable part of the piezo- and pyroelectricity in polyamide 11 Y1 - 2004 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Frübing, Peter A1 - Wegener, Michael A1 - Gerhard, Reimund A1 - Buchsteiner, Alexandra A1 - Neumann, Werner A1 - Brehmer, Ludwig T1 - Different molecular mechanisms for the dielectric hysteresis and pyroelectricity in a poly(vinyl alcohol) with azobenzene-alkoxy side chains N2 - By means of pyroelectrical measurements and dielectric spectroscopy as well as structural information from differential scanning calorimetry, it is shown that, in a poly(vinyl alcohol) with azobenzene-alkoxy side chains, pyroelctricity and dielectric hysteresis which are usually related to each other have different origins. The pyroelectric effect is explained with reversible dipole-density changes upon thermal expansion, whereas the dielectric hysteresis is proposed to result from a charge-carrier polarisation.
