1A1-C24 Application of Ion Conductive Polymer-Gel Film Actuator for Positioning Control : 3rd. Report: Effect of Driving Ion on The Long Time Positioning and Developement of An Linear Movement Type Actuator

Abstract

Nation based precious metal plating ion conductive polymer-gel film (ICPF) actuator is very attractive because of its high-speed response and softness of the material. The deformation characteristics, especially the generating direction of residual strain changes with the density or the amount of the Na+ driving ion. If the residual strain generates the same side of the initial strain, the displacement of the ICPF can be controlled by popular integral control method. In this paper, the long timedeformation characteristics of Au-NF 115 ICPF was investigated and linear motion type displacement positioning actuator was produced.
