Porous polymer actuator and method for fabricating the same

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a porous polymer actuator which maintains the porous structure of the polymer actuator by forming a conductive polymer layer on a commercially available porous polymer separation membrane by vapor-phase polymerization and is capable of improving fast responsiveness to organic solvents and durability by ensuring structural anisotropy, and a method for fabricating the same. The porous polymer actuator according to the present disclosure includes: a porous polymer separation membrane having pores; and a conductive polymer layer coated on one surface and in the pores of the porous polymer separation membrane, wherein the porous polymer actuator has a gradient wherein the amount of the conductive polymer coated in the pores decreases from the one surface of the porous polymer separation membrane toward the other surface.
