Polyvinglidene fluoride(PVDF) is a kind of polymer with pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties. It is an ideal candidate material in the electrical and electronic field because of its better flexibility

thermal stability and corrosion resistance and so on. However

compared with traditional inorganic piezoelectric materials

its dielectric constant and piezoelectric constant of PVDF are much lower

so now how to improve the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of PVDF has become one international research hot spot. The recent advance on the methods of improving the dielectric or piezoelectric properties of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) by hybridization of metal particles and metal compounds is reviewed in the paper. Advantages and disadvantages of this method are discussed

and the future research trend of hybrid PVDF for improving the electric properties are prospected meanwhile.
