Abstract
Bending polypyrrole/tape muscles translate any reaction driven ionic and aqueous exchange into large (up to 270 degrees) bending movements. The polypyrrole film is reduced between 1.0Â V and â2.5Â V with continuous charge consumption driven anions and water expulsion under control of two consecutive structural processes: shrinking and conformational compaction.
