Abstract

Dielectric elastomers (DEs) hold great promise as materials for novel, advanced electromechanical applications such as actuators, generators and sensors. [1] Choosing the right polymer for the blending approach is of utmost importance to improve the electro-mechanical properties of DEs. [2] A study in our laboratories shows that sub-percentage additions of various aromatic substances can increase electrical breakdown strength significantly via voltage stabilisation, due to an electron trapping effect. [3-5]
