The field-dependent viscoelastic and transient responses of plate-like carbonyl iron particle based magnetorheological greases

Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, 2019

The field-dependent viscoelastic and transient behaviours of plate-like-carbonyl-iron-particle-based magnetorheological greases are experimentally investigated in this study. The plate-like carbonyl-iron particles are made from spherical carbonyl-iron particles through a milling process using a rotary ball mill. Several samples of magnetorheological greases consisting of different weight percentages of plate-like carbonyl-iron particles are prepared. The surface microstructures and distributions of the plate-like carbonyl-iron particles in the grease are observed using various types of microscopic investigations. Subsequently, the viscoelastic and transient (dynamic) rheological properties of the plate-like carbonyl-iron particles are investigated using a commercial rheometer. The spherical carbonyl-iron particles are transformed into the flattened plate-like carbonyl-iron particles with a larger surface diameter. It is shown that the viscoelastic properties such as storage modulus ...

Properties of plate-like carbonyl iron particle for magnetorheological fluid

This work experimentally discussed the characterization, magnetic, and rheological properties of plate-like carbonyl iron particle (CIP) in comparison with conventional spherical CIP. Plate-like CIP was produced by using ball milling method. The effect of plate-like shape on the magnetic behavior of CIP was firstly investigated by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The results indicated that the plate-like CIP obtained higher saturation magnetization (about 8%) than that of the spherical particles. In addition, the field-dependent rheological properties such as yield stress were investigated and the results are compared between two particles as a function of the magnetic field intensity.
