A New Electro-Active Paper Actuator Using Conducting Polypyrrole

초록

The construction of electromechanical actuator has been achieved by using the conducting polypyrrole films deposition onto a gold-coated cellophane paper. This is probably the first report of this type of paper actuator. The conducting polypyrrole was elctro-generated using either galvanostatic or potentiostatic condtions at 0.5 mA/cm2 current density or 0.7 volts applied potential. The two types
