摘要
Macro-fiber composite actuators(MFCAs)suffer from strict restrictions on the utilization of lead-containing precursors due to growing environmental concerns.To address this issue,a novel lead-free MFCA based on potassium sodium niobate piezoceramics has been developed using the dice&fill method.The MFCA demonstrates large electric field-induced displacement(31.4μm over-500-1500 V at 0.5 Hz),excellent frequency stability,and a strong linear relationship between the induced displacement and the external voltage amplitude.Meanwhile,unlike lead-based MFCA that requires superposition of a negative dc bias voltage to pursue higher output performance but risks depolarization,lead-free MFCA can achieve larger displacement by superimposing only a positive bias voltage.This device exhibits excellent reliability,maintaining a stable output over 10^(5) electrical cycles.Additionally,a“back-to-back”coupled MFCA has been developed to regulate bidirectional displacement,making it suitable for various practical applications,including active vibration control.This approach has resulted in a 90%vibration reduction and provides new insights into the design of MFCAs,further facilitating their application in active vibration control systems.
