Improving the magnetorheological effect in isotropic magnetorheological rubber materials

Polymer Testing, 2003
Magnetorheological (MR) rubber materials are the solid analogue of magnetorheological fluids; i.e. their rheological properties can be controlled by an applied magnetic field. However, the use of a crosslinked matrix allows larger particles to be used than in fluid matrices, and when large irregular particles are used alignment of the particles is not ...

Predicating magnetorheological effect of magnetorheological elastomers under normal pressure

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2013
Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) present reversible change in shear modulus in an applied magnetic field. For applications and tests of MREs, a normal pressure must be applied on the materials. However, little research paid attention on the effect of the normal pressure on properties of MREs.

A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...
