Recent progress on the magnetorheological plastomers

International Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2015
Different from the traditional magnetorheological (MR) fluids and elastomers, the magnetic particles in the plastic MR materials are not ‘deadly’ trapped in the polymer matrix; thus, the MR plastomers exhibit higher MR effects and lower sedimentation ...
