使用活化的多壁碳纳米管（MWCNT）-离子液体（IL）凝胶电极开发了致动器，并与非活化的MWCNT-和单壁碳纳米管（SWCNT）为基础的致动器，在其电化学和机电性能方面进行了比较。此外，IL的变化对活化MWCNT-NH 2/IL凝胶电极致动器的电化学和机电性能的影响进行了研究。活化的MWCNT-NH 2聚合物致动器的性能超过单壁碳纳米管致动器，在应变和最大产生的应力方面。对于MWCNT-NH 2驱动器，应变和最大产生的应力取决于IL种类。
Actuators were developed using activated multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)–ionic liquid (IL) gel electrodes, and were compared with non-activated MWCNT- and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)-based actuators, in terms of their electrochemical and electromechanical properties. Furthermore, the effects of variations in the IL on the electrochemical and electromechanical properties of the activated MWCNT–NH2/IL gel electrode actuators were investigated. The performance of the activated MWCNT–NH2polymer actuator surpassed that of the SWCNT actuator, in terms of the strain and maximum generated stress. For the MWCNT–NH2actuators, the strain and maximum generated stress were dependent on the IL species.
