Abstract
Soft electro-ionic actuators have received extensive research and attention due to their advantages such as low voltage response and adjustable deformation. However, they have not been able to enter the actual industry application like traditional rigid actuators; one of the reasons may be that the kinematic properties of actuators have been less studied. The electro-ionic actuator based on Ti3C2T x MXene-CNT/PPy electrode prepared in this paper shows good bending displacement (18.8 mm) and strain (0.63%) under 4 V voltage. In this article, the overlapping nature and exponential function relationship of the actuator end-point trajectories are preliminarily discussed, and the morphology change and cubic polynomial function relationship of the actuator body are considered. Moreover, in application, a novel proof-of-concept model of smart wearable finger straps is proposed. This study is a unique attempt and is hoped to provide a new research perspective in the field of soft electro-ionic actuators.
