Abstract
An electro-sensitive composition comprising a fluorine compound having a predetermined structure, and an electrically insulating medium capable of dissolving this fluorine compound when a voltage is applied thereto, is disclosed. This electro-sensitive composition has a straight chain or cyclic fluorocarbon, and fluorine compound particles possessing dissociable polarity, dispersed in an electrically insulating medium; by means of the application of a voltage to this electro-sensitive composition, the transparency and viscosity thereof can be easily adjusted.
Claims2
An electro-sensitive composition comprising (1) a fluorine compound having the formula:
- R.sub.1 --(CF.sub.2).sub.n --R.sub.2 wherein,
- R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of H, F, Cl, Br and I;
- R.sub.2 is CH.sub.2 OH;
- n indicates an integer within a range of 3-30 and m indicates an integer within a range of 0-2;
- and (2) an electrically insulating medium selected from the group consisting of silicone oil, phosphazine oil and mixtures thereof, which dissolves the fluorine compound when a voltage is applied thereof.
