  • Liquid-driven nano-porous actuator and the application thereof
    Patent number: 9945399
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a liquid-driven nano-porous actuator and the application thereof, and belongs to the field of nano material actuators. According to the present invention, by changing the content of the liquid in the nano-porous material, the interface between the surface liquid of the nano-porous material and air is exchanged between flat and curved states, so as to change the compressive stress acting on the nano-porous material from the surface tension of the liquid and change the elastic deformation of the nano-porous material, thus driving the nano-porous material to contract and expand in a reversible manner and further realizing driving performance.
    Type: Grant
