The focus of this paper is to explore a most suitable piezoelectric material for a surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor to monitor corrosion for curved and complex surfaces at elevated temperatures. A comparison between piezocrystal Quartz and piezopolymers PVDF and Polyimide is made on the basis of s...
