High-power bidirectional-driven bionic muscle fiber as well as preparation method and use thereof

Abstract

A high-power bidirectional-driven bionic muscle fiber as well as a preparation method and use thereof are provided. The bionic muscle fiber includes a matrix fiber and an object material layer coating the matrix fiber, where the matrix material is capable of emitting heat after electrification, and the object material layer includes a liquid crystal elastomer (LCE); the bionic muscle fiber is excessively twisted to form a helical barrel-like structure. The bionic muscle fiber provided by the present application improves the mechanical property of the LCE, shows large work capability and drive quantity, and has an realize rapid response and work at high frequency. The contraction of the fiber can be controlled by changing voltage. Furthermore, the bionic muscle fiber exhibits a bidirectional driving feature that can recover without stress. In addition, the cyclic work of the fiber is greater than zero.
