摘要
本研究采用静电纺丝法制备了两种具有不同纤维直径的聚偏二氟乙烯-六氟丙烯(PVDF-HFP)电解质薄膜用于电化学执行器.相比于滴涂薄膜,电纺薄膜具有出色的柔韧性和大量孔隙结构,其中粗纤维薄膜(PVDF-HFP 22％(w))表现出更好的拉伸断裂应力(7.52 MPa)、拉伸断裂伸长率(235％)和器件面电容(39.8 mF·cm-2).在±0.5 V,0.1 Hz的低驱动电压下,粗纤维薄膜制备的电化学执行器的驱动位移为9.6 mm,相比于细纤维执行器的6.5 mm和滴涂薄膜执行器的2.6 mm分别提升了 1.48倍和3.69倍.当电压升高到±2 V,0.1 Hz时,粗纤维薄膜执行器驱动位移为24.3 mm,分别是细纤维执行器的1.19倍和滴涂样品的1.46倍.该工作为制备大驱动位移电化学执行器提供了新的思路与方法.
Abstract
The microstructure of the electrolyte layer in electrochemical actuators significantly influences ion storage and transport,mechanical properties,and the final actuator deformation performance.In this study,two types of polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene(PVDF-HFP)electrolyte films with varying fiber diameters were prepared by electrospinning for electrochemical actuators.We controlled the diameters of the fibers by adjusting the concentrations of the polymer solu-tion,while the film is carefully controlled to a consistent size in length,width,and thickness.Subsequently,the fiber film was immersed in the ionic liquid to achieve excellent electrolyte film performance.A poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate)(PEDOT∶PSS)electrode thin film was prepared using a drop coating method.Finally,an electro-chemical actuator was prepared by hot pressing the electrode and electrolyte films.Compared with the drop-coated electro-lyte film,the electrospun counterparts exhibit an excellent flexibility and a porous structure.Among them,the film with a larger fiber diameter(PVDF-HFP 22％(w))reveals better tensile stress(7.52 MPa),tensile strain(235％),porosity(74％)and surface capacitance(39.8 mF·cm-2),and its tip displacement is 9.6 mm at±0.5 V and 0.1 Hz,which is 1.48 times that of the smaller fiber diameter sample(PVDF-HFP 16％(w))and 3.69 times that of the drop-coated sample,respectively.When at±2 V and 0.1 Hz,the displacement is as high as 24.3 mm,which is 1.19 times that of the smaller fiber diameter sample(PVDF-HFP 16％(w))and 1.46 times that of the drop-coated sample,respectively.Under the driving voltage of±0.5 V and 0.1 Hz,after 10000 cycles,the driving displacement of PVDF-HFP 22％(w)electrochemical actuator can still reach 98％compared with the initial state.By improving the microstructures of electrolyte films through electrospinning,we successful-ly realized the preparation of high-performance electrochemical actuators,which provides a new idea for the development of soft robots in the future.
