Dielectric elastomer actuators with high dielectric constant and flexibility were prepared. These actuators were fabricated by the composite of barium titanate (BaTiO3) and polyester-type thermosetting polyurethane (TSU), which was molecularly-designed to become less hard segment content. In this study, the effects of particle size, volume fraction and manufacturing method of BaTiO3 were investigated. In addition, the mechanically-stretched effect in composites was also evaluated. It turned out that the electrical breakdown strength increased with the increase of particle size of BaTiO3 and in volume fraction as well as the use of BaTiO3 synthesized by the oxalate method. In addition, prestrain of composites also raised the electrical breakdown strength. However, the addition of BaTiO3 to polyurethane didn’t contribute to the actuation under a lower electric field.

Composites have been extensively studied for dielectric and related applications. This is a review of polymer based 0–3 composites that exhibit a high dielectric constant. These composites are classified into two types: Dielectric–dielectric composite and conductor–dielectric composite. The physical principles and related models are presented with associated assumptions and approximations. In general, a dielectric–dielectric composite needs a higher concentration of the fillers to reach a high dielectric constant than a conductor–dielectric composite. The high dielectric constant observed in the conductor–dielectric composites is usually associated with a high dielectric loss and a low electric breakdown field. The experimental results are summarized to illustrate the principles for, and the achievements in, the development of these composites. The challenges facing the fundamental understanding and the further development of these composites for different applications are discussed.
