Abstract
Piezoelectric materials as determinants of 21st century smart industry were reviewed with the aim of showcasing how utilization of their properties defines 21st century smart industries. Secondary data was used for the study. The study focused on few key properties: piezoelectric coefficient and mechanical quality factor. It was observed that when mechanical stress is applied to piezoelectric material (quartz, lead zirconate titanate (PZT), Rochelle salt, barium titanate, polyvinylidne fluoride (PVDF)), electrical charges are generated. The electrical charges generated causes mechanical motion. The sensing of the electrical charges (sensor) and the causing of mechanical motion (actuator) in these materials is the brain behind automation in 21st century industries and robotic engineering. The ability to detect this relationship is the piezoelectric coefficient. While the mechanical quality factor is the ability to store generated electrical energy. The utilization of this property is also the brain behind smart cities green energy and self sustaining tools. The study was able x-ray properties of piezoelectric materials and how they are shaping 21st century smart industries.
