Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing, and in particular relates to a 4D printing method for curved IPMC. Background technique [0002] Ionic Polymer-Metal Composites (IPMC) has the advantages of low driving voltage, good flexibility, no noise, light weight, simple structure and suitable for working in water environment, etc. the key of. Although IPMC has many technical advantages compared with traditional drives, most of the existing processes are to obtain ion exchange membranes through the traditional process of casting film, and then plate electrodes through other processes. The obtained IPMC has a planar structure, which greatly limits the use of IPMC. widely used. [0003] 4D printing refers to the use of programmable substances (usually smart composite materials) as printing materials to print three-dimensional objects through 3D printing. Under predetermined excitations or stimuli (light, magnetism, water, el...
