Research and Applications of Shear Thickening Fluids
Recent Patents on Materials Science, 2011Shear thickening fluids (STFs) have been studied extensively, and an enormous number of patents have been generated due to their potential for commercial applications. STFs draw continued attention as they are considered possible candidate materials for liquid body armour and sporting protective clothing because of their unique properties.

Thixotropy of MR shear-thickening fluids
Smart Materials and Structures, 2010Particle sedimentation is a key issue of conventional magnetorheological (MR) fluids. We recently fabricated MR shear-thickening fluids (MRSTF), which can work as novel MR fluids without particle settling. This merit of the material against particle settling is attributed to the thixotropy property.

Rheology of Magnetorheological Shear Thickening Fluids
Advanced Materials Research, 2008This paper presents fabrication and characterizing of a new functional material, magnetorheological shear thickening fluid (MRSTF), by mixing micron-sized magnetizable particles with nano-sized silica particle based shear thickening fluid. Dynamic properties of the MRSTF were characterized by using a parallel-plate rheometer.

Energy Absorption in a Shear-Thickening Fluid
Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance, 2014This study investigates energy absorption in a shear-thickening fluid (STF) containing nano-size fumed silica as a suspending material. Fumed silica particles in 20, 30, and 40 wt.% were used in polyethylene glycol and ethylene glycol. Three areas were studied, namely: energy absorption of STF pre-impregnated aramid fabric, neat STF under high-velocity

Study on magnetorheological shear thickening fluid
Smart Materials and Structures, 2008In this paper, a magnetic-field-controlled and speed-activated magnetorheological shear thickening fluid (MRSTF) is presented. We fabricated a kind of shear thickening fluid (STF) which was composed of nanosize silica particles suspended in a solvent, ethylene glycol, at high concentrations.

Shear thinning and shear thickening characteristics in electrorheological fluids
Smart Materials and Structures, 2013The electrorheology (ER) of suspensions based on polystyrene/polyaniline (PS/PANI) core/shell structured microspheres and those based on disk-like zeolite particles at different electric fields and particle volume fractions have been studied, respectively.

Nonlinear fluid behavior: from shear thinning to shear thickening
Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1994Abstract A phenomenological model is introduced which describes both shear thinning and shear thickening behavior. Consequences of this model are presented for plane Couette (simple shear) flow. The non-Newtonian viscosity and normal pressure differences are discussed for a stationary situation.

Shear thickening fluid (STF) for personal stab-resistant clothing has been consistently discussed. However, it is not clear whether STF in STF–fabric composite materials undergoes thickening under normal loads, and to what extent. In this study, the yarn pullout test and the knife-stab test in the quasistatic mode were used to establish the enhancement
