In this paper, synthesis of nanocomposite and experimental investigation of three samples of nanocomposite films are presented. The aim of this research is to determine influence of the PZT particle concentration in nanocomposite on the surface morphology, qualitative and quantitative chemical composition ant direct piezoelectric effect. The specimens were prepared by mixing the PZT nanopowder with PMMA in three different proportions: 85% of PZT and 15% of binder; 90% of PZT and 10% of binder; 95% of PZT and 5% of binder. Surface morphology and qualitative and quantitative chemical composition were evaluated using scanning electron microscope, which is equipped with the Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometer. Electrical response of the pulse-excited specimens is also presented.
