Abstract: 0-3 Cement-based Piezoelectric Composite (CPC) made of Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) powder-cement was produced using PZT at 50% by volume. The compacted method produced the composites with a pressure of 80 MPa. Considering several low electric field potentials in the polarization process, such as a more controlled and homogeneous polarization, the polarization process was carried out using a low electrical field with a certain duration: 250 V/mm-40 minutes (C1), 250 V/mm-60 minutes (C2), 375 V/mm-40 minutes (C3), and 375 V/mm-60 minutes (C4). SEM and XRD results show that the Pb, CaCO3, C-S-H, and C-H were detected in the CPC, making the composites denser. The d33 value increases as the electric field magnitude and polarization duration increase. The d33 values of C1, C2, C3, and C4 on day 30 were 4.63 pC/N, 4.60 pC/N, 4.67 pC/N, and 4.87 pC/N, respectively. C4 and C2 show the most significant values of εr, 87.33 and 75.42, respectively. The g33 showed the opposite value of the εr. C1 and C3 showed the most significant values of 8.6x10-3 Vm/N and 7.5x10-3 Vm/N, respectively. Polarization can be carried out at low electric fields, but the degree of polarization is reasonably low. CPC is predicted to be used as a sensor even with a low level of sensitivity.
