Electromechanical performance and membrane stability of novel ionic polymer transducers constructed in the presence of ionic liquids by Akle, Barbar J.

“…The present range of ionic liquid uptake for sBPS was sufficient to identify the critical uptake (f c ) for three of the four ionomers in the series. Future work to construct IPTs with these components will use the critical uptake as a minimum allowable content of ionic liquid to optimize the balance of electrical and mechanical properties for the device components.…”
