摘要
This paper presents the development of a new transparent actuator prepared from poly(dimethylsiloxane)/ionic liquid (PDMS/IL) gel electrolyte. The gel electrolyte film is prepared using a casting method and thin electrodes are applied by spray coating. Subsequently, the electrochemical and electromechanical properties of the PDMS/IL gel electrolyte actuator are investigated, which reveal its superior strain performance. The functioning mechanism of the actuator appears to originate from both the electrostatic double-layer capacitor (EDLC) and Faradaic capacitor (FC) mechanisms, with greater contribution of the former. These transparent, flexible, and robust films may have significant potential as actuator materials for wearable and transparent electronic and energy-conversion devices. (c) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
