Conductive Polymers for Electro-Mechanical Systems: Structure–Property Relationships and Mechanical Behavior Under Stress
Abstract: Conductive polymers represent a unique class of functional materials that combine the electrical characteristics of metals with the mechanical flexibility of polymers. These dual properties are critical for the next generation of electro-mechanical systems, including wearable sensors, soft robotics, structural health monitoring (SHM), and biomedical actuators. However, the mechanical performance of conductive polymers under diverse stress conditions—such as elongation, cyclic loading, bending, and impact—remains a key challenge, limiting their long-term …
