Moisture-sensitive conductivity of the PBONF-reinforced CNT/PVA bilayer actuators and its application as an electrical tweezer. (a) Electric conductance of the PVA layer, the PBONF-reinforced CNT layer, and the PBONF-reinforced CNT/PVA bilayers at different RHs. (b) Relationship between the conductance and the bending angle of bilayer actuators. Insets are photographs showing the bending degree of actuators. (c,d) Photographs illustrating that an electrical tweezer grips a copper wire, closes the circuit, and lightens up the LED bulb at the same time, when the RH is switched from (c) 32% to (d) 98%. The tweezer consists of two PBONF-reinforced CNT/PVA strips.
