Abstract
The power harvesting properties of a new class of all polymeric ionic electroactive materials, named Ionic Polymer-Polymer composites (IP2Cs) from vibrating sources are introduced and experimentally investigated. Obtained results show that the proposed technology gives better results with respect to other ionic polymeric transducers and allow to foresee the possibility to use in the future all polymeric transducers to power post-silicon devices such as polymeric wireless sensor networks.
