Dielectric elastomers, with very high dielectric permittivity, based on silicone and ionic interpenetrating networks [PDF]
Dielectric elastomers (DEs), which represent an emerging actuator and generator technology, admittedly have many favourable properties, but their high driving voltages are one of the main obstacles to commercialisation.
