Abstract
The IPMC, one of new sensing and actuating materials is known for the fast and flexible
bending actuation upon electric fields. In this paper, we investigated the dynamic deformation
characteristics of the novel IPMC according to several fabrication methods. First we studied the effect
of the surface modification of metallic electrodes on the large deformation. Present results show that
the sandblasting method can give more reliable and large deflections than the sandpapering method
under the same control voltage because the platinum electrode can be infiltrated into the
ionic-polymer by the sandblasting method. Second, the IPMC with Li+ counter ions shows more large
deformation than that with any other counter ions. Also, present results show the dynamic hysteresis
according to driving voltages.
