FCP Thin Film Corona Polarizer — 1

Overview

MatMeas FCP Series Film Corona Poling System, specifically engineered for laboratory-scale production of piezoelectric polymer films. This advanced system utilizes corona discharge to align dipoles in thin film materials, achieving optimal piezoelectric properties through precise control of voltage, temperature, and process monitoring. It integrates a 30kV high-voltage module, a PID-controlled heating stage (up to 180℃), and sensitive current measurement (≥100nA) to enable researchers to fine-tune poling parameters. The FCP system is widely used in R&D labs developing sensors, energy harvesters, acoustic devices, and aerospace components, offering a reliable and efficient solution for thin film poling.

FAQ

  • How does the FCP system prevent physical damage to ultra-thin polymer films during high-voltage polarization?

    Traditional corona equipment often utilizes harsh contact mechanisms that can puncture or tear delicate polymer films. The MatMeas FCP system resolves this by employing a proprietary single-wire electrode fixture. This innovative design not only completely prevents physical damage to the sample but also significantly enhances the corona discharge effect, ensuring pristine film integrity.
  • Can the system perform negative corona polarization for materials like PVDF?

    Yes. While the standard system delivers powerful up to 30kV polarization, the FCP is uniquely highly customizable to support negative corona polarization (from 0kV down to -30kV) specifically for piezoelectric polymers like PVDF. Furthermore, the system incorporates two built-in independent power modules to guarantee absolute stability without mutual interference during operation.
  • What is the maximum sample size and polarization efficiency of the FCP?

    The FCP offers exceptionally high polarization throughput. It is engineered with a highly optimized sample plate that ensures excellent electrode contact, allowing researchers to uniformly polarize large-area thin films up to A5 size (148mm × 210mm) in a single batch, making it highly efficient for both laboratory R&D and pilot-scale production.
