## Abstract This study dealt with the bendingβelectrostrictive response of a polyurethane film, which was a promising candidate for a material to be used in polymer actuators. The film bent under an electric field (2.5 MV/m). However, when the field polarity was reversed, the bending direction curi

All-polymer electrostrictive soft films were developed for the first time by depositing conductive polymer (polypyrrole) directly on both sides of solution-cast electrostrictive polyurethane elastomer films. The final composite films are flexible with strong adhesion between the polyurethane film an
Hysteresis in the fifth loading cycle has been measured for a series of polyurethane-ureas based on polytetramethylene glycol (PTMEG), toluene diisocyanate (TDI), and two different amine chain extenders/curatives, methylenebisortho chloroanaline (MBOCA) and a dimethylthio toluene diamine (Ethacure 3
Polyurethane elastomer was recently discovered to demonstrate a very high field induced electrostrictive response. In this work an experimental setup, consisting of an electric circuit and a mechanical system, was designed and constructed for the measurement of the electrostrictive polarization bias
