Magnetorheology of alginate ferrogels [PDF]

open access: yesSmart Materials and Structures, 2019
Magnetorheological (MR) effect is a phenomenon typical of suspensions of magnetizable particles in a liquid carrier, characterized by strong changes of their mechanical properties in response to applied magnetic fields. Its origin is on the migration of magnetized particles and their aggregation into chain-like structures.
