There were twenty-seven etudes written by Chopin. They are in two seperate collections and each contains twelve. This is a very challenging piece of work. The first set was published in 1833 and the second one was in 1837.

What is the name given to a piece of music written soley to improve technique?

Etude might be the word you are going for. It is the French word for study. But Chopin put the old notion of 'etude' to rest when he wrote his. His etudes are groundbreaking. They are studies to be sure, but it is not at all unusual to hear them in concert settings. He wrote his etudes as pieces of music, interesting on their own independent of their technical aspects, which are formidable. His friend Franz Liszt was inspired by them, and created some of the most fantastic 'etudes' ever written, the Transcendental Etudes. Maybe the word you are really going for, then, is exercise, as in Hanon or Pishna.
