Electrical Characteristics of Capacitors and Resistors Made of Flexible and Elasticity Materials and Application of Circuits

In this study, flexible capacitors and resistance elements were manufactured using materials with flexibility and elasticity, and their electrical and mechanical characteristics were analyzed. Solution-type silicone and synthetic rubber were selected and manufactured as the insulator substrates of the flexible element, and these materials showed strong properties against mechanical deformation by providing high elasticity and durability. A flexible passive element with excellent resistance and conductivity was implemented as the electrode material using aluminum tape and silver paste. The electrical characteristics of the device manufactured based on the theoretical formula of capacitance and resistance were systematically analyzed, and the operating performance of the device was evaluated by applying it to an RC DC circuit. In addition, the durability of the flexible element manufactured through the bending test was measured.
