| Research Abstract |
The polymer structures have been examined to obtain a high-performance-polymer-film alternating poly(perfluorocarbon sulfonicacid) for the polymer actuators. As a key chemical structure of the polymer backbone, we focused on poly(imide sulfonate) s which have an excellent performance of thermal resistance, radiation resistance, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance. Various polyimides were synthesized by changing monomer structures and their ratios for co-polymerization. We accumulated several new findings of solvent solubility, water absorption, and swelling behaviors of such polymers to fabricate high performance polymer actuators.
