CP-EAPap 생체모방 작동기의 제조 및 성능

초록

Biomimetic actuators composed of cellophane with an electrically conducting polyaniline(PANI) film have been fabricated and tested in air ambience conditions doped with two different counter ions such as perchlorate (ClO4- ) and tetrafluoroborate (BF4-). Fabrication of the trilayer CP//CELLOPHANE//CP substantially enhanced the tip displacement (13.2 ) compared to the small displacement (8.3 ) of the bilayer CP//CELLOPHANE. The ion migration among layers is the main factor behind the expansion of cellophane, while the expansion /contraction of PANI are dependent on the redox reaction of the polymer. The displacement of the composite is dominated by the humidity content. This implies that the actuation principle is possibly due to the assistance of water existing.
