摘要
This paper summarizes some of the work done to investigate the environmental stability, optical properties and electroactive response of a polyethylene glycol diepoxypropyl. ether (n9)(PEGDE) polymer, acrylic elastomer and polyurethane. The first one confirms piezoelectricity; however it is not suitable for optical applications due to color instability and loss of transparency with various environmental conditions; the second confirms electrostriction with good transparency, while the polyurethane behaves with smaller mixed piezoelectric-electrostrictive response. The acrylic elastomer has demonstrated chemical stability with good optical properties for various environmental conditions.
