Super soft silicone elastomers with high dielectric permittivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Dielectric elastomers (DEs) have many favourable properties. The obstacle of high driving voltages, however, limits the commercial viability of the technology at present. Driving voltage can be lowered by decreasing the Young’s modulus and increasing the
