Abstract

Abstract Cracks in polymer composites can lead to premature failure, which can be disastrous for polymer-based energy storage devices. Detecting these cracks is essential to guarantee the reliability and safety of such devices. However, detecting cracks in composite polymers such as ionic polymer metal composites (IPMCs) is a challenging task, which makes it difficult to ensure their performance and safety. The overall goal of this study is to investigate the effect of cracks or damage caused by tensile loading on the mechanical properties and electrochemical characteristics of IPMC based capacitors. During tensile testing, the deformation of the IPMC strips causes changes in the ion distribution and concentration in the polymer matrix, influencing the performance of the material. The measurements were conducted utilizing electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at a room temperature ( 21 C ) and frequency range of 10 KHz to 1 Hz. The method utilized in this study proved to be easy and quick with consistent results. The IPMC capacitor was found to increase its capacitance after major cracking in the Pt electrodes from high tensile mechanical loads. Furthermore, at lower frequency range (<100 Hz), the real ( ε ) and imaginary ( ε ) part of permittivity increase with the addition of loads. This displays that the dielectric property of the material is affected due to the increasing of the loads. It is concluded that, at frequencies above 100 Hz, the permittivity is weakly load dependent.
