Composite magnetic particles (CMP) with carbonyl iron (CI) core and poly (methyl methacrylate) shell were prepared by an in-situ dispersion polymerization method via surface treated CI with acrylic acid. These CMP were adopted as dispersed phase of magnetorheological (MR) fluids, and has better MR fluids characteristics than fluid with CI alone as they have severe sedimentation and poor dispersion quality. Flow properties of the MR fluids were analyzed via a rotational rheometer equipped with a magnetic field supplier in parallel plate geometry.Index Terms-Carbonyl iron, composite, magnetorheological fluid, poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
