Novel material composites for dielectric elastomer actuators by Ankit

“…Generally, researchers have tried to modify either of these properties with addition of solid conductive or ceramic fillers, or chemical modification of the elastomer, and this has led to undesirable changes on the other material properties. Drawing inspiration from biological materials like skin, which is a soft material system filled with fluids, a novel composite is synthesized utilizing a solid polymer matrix and a high dielectric constant liquid filler, an ionic liquid. …”
