Abstract
We have developed a PVC gel artificial muscle which is high performance and soft. Therefore, we evaluated the characteristics of the PVC gel actuator using flexible mesh electrode instead of the rigid conventional stainless mesh electrodes in this study. As a result, we have found a material of flexible mesh electrode that shows better performance than that of the conventional PVC gel actuator.
