Bimodal condensation silicone elastomers as dielectric elastomers [PDF]
Lately, dielectric elastomers (DEs) which consist of an elastomer sandwiched between electrodes on both sides, have gained interest as materials for actuators, generators, and sensors. An ideal elastomer for DE uses is characterized by high extensibility, flexibility and good mechanical fatigue as well as high electrical and mechanical breakdown ...
