The Global Artificial Muscle Market is primed for growth due to rising demand for advanced prosthetics and soft robotics.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) biosensors could enable the advanced detection of biomolecules, enhancing healthcare and environmental monitoring with high precision.

长期以来，软体机器人领域面临一个核心矛盾：作为其“肌肉”的驱动材料难以同时具备大变形能力与高输出力。传统的铁电陶瓷或晶体虽能提供足够的力，但其微小变形和过度刚性限制了在软体机器人中的应用。而柔性聚合物，如典型的聚偏氟乙烯基铁电聚合物和介电弹性体，虽能 ...

Out-of-equilibrium states that deviate from thermodynamic equilibrium are crucial not only for biological systems but also ...

Abstract: Electroactive polymers are frequently used in engineering applications due to their ability to change their shape and properties under the influence of an electric field. This process also ...

IDTechEx Research finds that the electroactive polymer (EAP) market will be US$245 million in 2013. EAP materials have been used for some time in actuators, capacitors and nanocomposites but, with new ...

IDTechEx estimates the electroactive polymer market volume to be US$ 245 million in 2013. This shows, despite several decades of R&D and first applications, the electroactive polymers (EAP) field is ...

Abstract: Electroactive polymers, or EAP, are a class of materials that change their shape when excited by an electric field. Main focus of research is currently the application of EAP as artificial ...

ABSTRACT: Ionic polymer-metal composites (IPMCs) are especially interesting electroactive polymers because they show large a deformation in the presence of a very low driving voltage (around 1 - 2 V) ...
