Percentage strain relaxation of a bent PAMPS hydrogel strip in the absence of electric field, where the bent strip was produced by switching on the electric field at time zero and switching it off at 1 minute. Inset shows the measured strain in the hydrogel strip subjected to cyclic on-off electric field (1 min on and 9 min off). Only the lowest and highest strain values are plotted.
