主　　题：Nanocarbon actuator polymer stacking model 

摘      要：We have developed stacked nanocarbon polymer actuators that are composed of several nanocarbon polymer actuator films using nonwoven fabric as insulation *** nonwoven fabric prepared through electrospinning methods has extremely-low-density structures,which do not significantly prevent the motions of each nanocarbon actuator ***,stacking several thin nanocarbon polymer actuators using nonwoven fabric as insulation layers is expected to increase generated force without decreasing the displacement of a one-layer *** have prepared stacked actuators with one,two,three,four,and seven layers using this *** displacement and blocking force of these actuators are measured and compared with those of one-layer actuators of different *** is weakly dependent on the thickness of the actuator films of the stacked *** the contrary,it decreases considerably as the thickness of the actuator film of the one-layer actuator *** both cases,blocking force is proportional to the thickness of actuator *** have developed a stacked actuator model based on a trilayer actuator model and confirmed the experimental results using the model.
