We demonstrate converse piezoelectric behavior of electrospun polylactic acid (PLA) fiber mats containing anisometric pigment nanoparticles (Novoperm Carmine HF3C). The effective piezoelectric constant of the fiber mats was estimated to be 2 nm V-1. These findings suggest polarity of the pigment particles obtained by a milling process. Transient electric current measurements were conducted to test the residual polarization of the particles. Piezoelectric fiber mats may be utilized to make colorful electro-active fiber mats and wearable smart clothing.
