Polypyrrole is a leading conducting polymer actuator, but the factors that influence its performance when actuated under load in devices (such as the polymer stiffness) are not yet fully understood. To this end, we have probed the dynamic elastic mod

Free-standing polypyrrole films have been stretched or cold rolled to produce uniaxially and biaxially textured films. The oriented films show an increase in conductivity up to 3× when compared to unprocessed films, due to polymer chain alignment. H

The increasing understanding of the advantages offered by fish and insect-like locomotion is creating a demand for muscle-like materials capable of mimicking nature's mechanisms. Actuator materials that employ voltage, field, light, or temperature dr

Oriented conducting polymer actuators are produced via stretching electrodeposited polypyrrole films to high elongations. An anisotropic electroactive strain response (e⊥/e∥ = 38) is observed due t...
