Abstract Electro-active ionic soft actuators have been intensively investigated as an artificial muscle for robotics due to their large bending deformations at low voltages, small electric power consumption, superior energy density, high safety and biomimetic self-sensing actuation. However, slow responses, poor durability bandwidth, mainly resulting from improper distribution of conducting phase in polyelectrolyte membranes, hinder practical applications real fields.
