Abstract
This paper was proposed a stacked and arrayed electrostatic actuator using plasticized PVC gel. The response actuator is higher than conventional plasticized PVC gel actuator, since gel moves in air. The monolayer actuator had 4 arrayed actuation area. The 4 stacked monolayer was actuated each layer. The displacement of stacked monolayer was 28 μm when applied dc voltage was 400 V. The calculated summation of each displacement of layer was larger than the experimental total displacement, because the adhesion force between electrode and gel was weaken. The resonant frequency and amplitude of stacked monolayer were 57 Hz and 42 μm, respectively.
