Abstract

The invention relates to a flexible dielectric elastomer composite material based on nanometer liquid metal. The flexible dielectric elastomer composite material comprises an elastomer and the liquidmetal and is prepared by the following steps: preparing a mercaptan-coated nanometer liquid metal emulsion through ultrasonic crushing, dissolving the elastomer in a solvent, then mixing with the nanometer liquid metal emulsion and uniformly stirring to obtain a liquid metal / elastomer / solvent suspension; obtaining the flexible dielectric elastomer composite material through hot pressing film formation or room-temperature curing. The flexible dielectric elastomer composite material provided by the invention has the benefits that dielectric constants of the composite material are improved, the dielectric loss is effectively reduced, and meanwhile, the elastic modulus of the composite material is not significantly increased, so that the problems of poor compatibility and flexibility of a dielectric elastomer modified by traditional inorganic rigid packing are solved, and the liquid metal-based dielectric elastomer composite material capable of meeting the requirements of a flexible wearable technology is prepared.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of dielectric materials, and further relates to a flexible dielectric elastomer composite material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of wearable technology, soft robots and other fields, the development of flexible electronic systems for sensing, driving, and energy conversion has become one of the core tasks. The electrical properties of dielectric elastomer materials such as polysiloxane, polyurethane or block copolymers are usually obtained by adding 10-30% volume fraction of inorganic fillers. These inorganic fillers can be silver (Ag) powder, Ag coated Coated nickel (Ni) microspheres, structured carbon black (CB), exfoliated graphite, carbon nanotubes (CNT), barium titanate (BaTiO 3 ), titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) other metallic, carbon-based or ceramic micro / nanoparticles. Although rigid particles are introduced into the elastomeric matrix to in...
