Dielectric elastomer material is a new type of smart materials that can be widely used in sensors and actuators. The electrostriction is a crucial characteristic of the dielectric elastomer
which is affected by its dielectric constant and elastic modulus. Silicone rubber has low dielectric elastic modulus and fast strain response
but its electrostriction is small. Based on this situation
the modified TiO
2
/silicone rubber dielectric elastomer composite material was prepared with silicone rubber as the matrix and KH550 modified TiO
2
as the filler
with its tensile properties
dielectric properties and electrostriction being tested. It is found that the addition of KH550 enables TiO

to be uniformly dispersed in the silicone rubber matrix. By changing the content of KH550 and TiO
