Abstract
Provided are a polymer and a polymer actuator including the polymer. The polymer is cross-linked by a cross-linking agent. When the polymer is used in the polymer actuator, the polymer actuator shows a high strain and may be stably operated at high temperatures.
Claims7
A polymer actuator comprising:
- a first electrode;
- a polymer layer, formed on the first electrode, comprising a poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-based terpolymer cross-linked by a cross-linking agent;
- and
- a second electrode formed on the polymer layer,
- wherein the cross-linking agent comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of methylenediamine, ethylenediamine, N-isopropyl ethylenediamine, 1,3-phenylenediamine, 1,5-naphthalenediamine, and 2,4,4-trimethyl-1,6-hexanediamine.
