A group of scientists managed to create artificial muscles based on carbon fiber. According to scientists, artificial able to lift the load, which is almost 13 thousand more than their weight.

It became known that the experts from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have created artificial muscles based on carbon fiber.

For the manufacture of artificial muscles, the researchers used a bundle of several thousands of intertwined carbon fibers, which was immersed in a solution of polydimethylsiloxane. Then he twisted the thread and put in the oven on the day.

Then the thread is again wound into a spiral, and so she began to decline, through it passed a current. In the end, it turned out that it can be reduced so much that it can be used as the electric actuator.

It is worth noting that the artificial muscles can lift the load, the weight of which exceeds their own weight 12.6 thousand times.
