“…R.K. Jain et al experimented on a 40 mm × 10 mm × 0.2 mm IPMC strip with EMG signal from index finger. Their result shows that EMG signal was amplified 2550 times and it was send to PID controller to produce 12 mm deflection of IPMC [4]. Zheng Chen et al had implemented a micro gripper which was designed with two thin polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films on both sides of an IPMC beam to measure the bending output with a niddle for manipulation and force feedback.…”

“…Furthermore, to decrease the expenses associated with production, the utilization of non-precious metals has been suggested as a viable option for manufacturing IPMC materials. R.K. Jain et al [ 11 ] constructed a sensor utilizing a Nafion 117 strip coated with gold to detect EMG signals generated from the index finger of a human being. The sensor was integrated with a proportional integral derivative control system to monitor muscle contraction or expansion.…”

Ionic polymer membranes have not yet gained widespread practical application in areas such as water purification and energy harvesting due to their high cost and tendency to swell. The present study involved the fabrication of reinforced textile structures composed of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-reinforced Nafion membranes coated with non-precious metals, copper and silver, as a surface electrode by applying a chemical decomposition technique. Several mechanical, contact angle measurement and dielectric tests were conducted on membranes to evaluate their mechanical, wettability and conductivity properties. From scanning electron microscopy, it is clear that the formation of surface electrodes with uniform dispersion of metal particles. Scratch test reveals the adhesive strength between the coated metal particles and membrane. The silver-activated copper-coated membrane has a high contact angle of 121°. Thus, the fabricated membranes can have good antibacterial and adsorption properties for water treatment. The copper-coated membrane has a high Young’s modulus of 779 ± 80 MPa and a tensile strength of 29.1 ± 8 MPa, whereas the elongation at break is more for silver-activated copper-coated samples recorded as 158 ± 4%. The viscoelastic behavior of the membranes was analyzed through dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). A sharp rise in the storage modulus (E′) value of 4.8 × 1010 Pa at ~80 °C at a frequency of 1 Hz on metal surface electrodes signifies an improvement in the strength of the material in comparison to the initial pure membrane. The successful enhancement of conductivity on the membrane surface via chemical deposition on the silver-activated membrane is 1 × 10−4 (S/cm) and holds great potential for facilitating voltage transmission through the tribolayer in the nanogenerators.
