Ultrasoft and fast self-healing poly(ionic liquid) electrode for dielectric elastomer actuators by Hui Wang, Adit Gupta, Qiuchun Lu, Wenting Wu, Xueyang Wang, Xin Huang, Xuanyi Hu, Pooi See Lee

“…Ionogels have been used as the electrodes in DEAs to offer thermostability and self-healability, however, typically the elastic modulus of the self-healing ionogel electrodes is of several tens of kPa (or higher), limiting the actuation strain performance and self-healing speed of the DEA. In this work, a poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) electrode with an ultralow elastic modulus of 3.4 kPa and rapid self-healing within 10 s in ambient and underwater conditions is achieved through ionic interaction regulation. …”
