Optimization Design for Conducting Polymer Soft Actuator that twist and Its Application to Micro Pump

研制了一种具有阴、阳离子双压电晶片结构的扭转导电聚合物软致动器，并构建了一种由扭转导电聚合物软致动器驱动的微泵。该微型泵可实现流体单向输送，无回流。输送头的最大压力为4.9 kPa，流速范围约为0.8 - 7.6 μl min-1。扭转型导电聚合物软致动器驱动的微泵基本性能与开闭型导电聚合物软致动器驱动的微泵基本性能相当。

We developed a twisting conducting polymer soft actuators with bimorph structures, such as anion and cation layers and constructed a micro pump driven by the twisting conducting polymer soft actuator. The micro pump could transport fluids in one direction without backflow. The maximum pressure of the delivery head was 4.9 kPa, and the flow rates ranged approximately 0.8 to 7.6 μl min-1. The basic performance of the micro pump driven by the twisting conducting polymer soft actuator was almost same as that by the opening and closing conducting polymer soft actuator.
