Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Polymer Materials which undergo dimensional changes in response to various environmental stimuli are capable of transducing chemical or physical energy directly into mechanical work. We have found that electrochemically synthesized polypyrrole films exhibit quick and intensive bending in ambient air, which lies in the reversible sorption of water or organic vapor. Furthermore, the combination of electrical and hygroscopic nature of the polypyrrole film provides an insight into a new class of electro-driven actuators or artificial muscle systems.
