Mazlum, Ugur; Celik, Ilhan
In this study, MR elastomer (MRE) materials were produced using seven different types of silicone rubber and five different types of magnetically sensitive ferromagnetic powders. The MRE materials were obtained in three states: pure, isotropic (homogeneous), and anisotropic (aligned). Compression tests were conducted using a uniaxial testing machine, with engineering stress–strain curves, tangent modulus, and MR-strain behavior graphs generated, considering powder ratio, powder type, and hardness values. The goal was to investigate the positive effects of magnetic field influence on these parameters and how the alignment state affected the stress performance of the materials. As a result, the highest stress increase at 10% strain was observed in materials containing 40% powder, with magnetic field comparison showing the most significant results. With the EM powder type at a 30% powder ratio in the isotropic state, a 563% increase in stress was obtained. Among the matrix materials with the same hardness, the most robust material was determined to be the MM240 TV with a Shore hardness of 40. Furthermore, the most significant increase in tangent modulus under the influence of the magnetic field was observed in vertically aligned materials. Compared to the pure material, a 3127% increase was found at 0.57% strain in vertically aligned samples. In materials with Shore hardness of 2, using Basf CN powder at 10–40% powder ratios, the highest relative MR effect was observed at a 20% powder ratio. The stress increase for vertically aligned samples compared to the pure state was 1274.6% at 0.27% strain. When comparing the relative MR effect of materials with Shore hardness between 10 and 59, the largest increase was obtained from the Sorta Clear matrix material.

Magneto-rheological (MR) materials can respond reversibly and quickly under the effect of an external magnetic field. MR materials contain micron-sized iron particles. These iron particles are typically dispersed in an elastomer or a liquid. These materials due to their properties constitute a kind of smart material in terms of engineering material. Such materials are used as isolators in various engineering applications, structures, and sound control subsystems. This study aimed to determine the mechanical properties for shear behavior of MR materials for under harmonic loading. Parameters such as matrix materials with different hardness values, powder types, magnetic field, frequency, and deformation were studied. The parameters related to the MR material itself were analyzed with the obtained data. The present study reveals that considering the sensitivity to magnetic field parameter, composite materials having the most suitable properties were produced with Shore 2 hardness value and SQ magnetic powder. It had been observed on increase about 200% at the rate of Shore A10 and A2 as a result of comparing the hardness scale. Also according to the powder rate while there was an increase on worth effect of relative MR, it is seen that the biggest increase had been in SQ powder with 199% worth. When looked some studies in literature, about comparing different hardness values such as matrix materials powder types etc. there aren’t any studies. The state of magnetic field thinks that features such as MR effect, Storage, and Loss modulus haven’t been examined yet.

The ferromagnetic particle, are used in many areas due to their magnetic field sensitivity. Composite MRE materials which obtained from the combination of the matrix material with these particles are classified as a kind of smart materials. In this study, it is aimed that the compressive mechanical properties of MRE materials produced by adding four different magnetic particles in RTV (room temperature vulcanizing) silicone elastomer are investigated. As a matrix material Vario 40 silicone rubber were used, which is common in engineering application. The particle rate inside MRE materials was kept at 30% by volume. In addition, to investigate the influence of orientation of particles inside MRE materials, some samples were subjected to external magnetic field during production. These samples are named as anisotropic MRE materials while the others are described as isotropic ones. The tests showed that anisotropic samples have much more strength values according to isotropic samples. Of all, the MRE samples including BASF CN particles reveal the biggest strength values. Also, the samples were evaluated in terms of MR effect and the largest MR effect with an increase value of 201% was found for anisotropic samples including SQ-I particles with regard to the corresponding isotropic one. As a result, this study determined that the mechanical and MR properties of MRE materials seriously depend on ferromagnetic particle kind and its magnetic characteristic.

Magneto-rheological (MR) materials are in a smart material class that has the rheological properties to be quickly and reversibly controlled with the external magnetic field applications. Considering the technological developments the rubber-like smart materials has had a more functional usage area with magneto-rheological effect. This study investigates the axial mechanical properties of magneto-rheological Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) and Natural Rubber (NR) type synthetic rubbers for isotropic and anisotropic situations. Also, these composite materials were built by means of hot press systems as either isotropic or anisotropic using magnetic field application after addition of ferromagnetic powders. The influence of magnetic field was investigated. In this study, NR rubber was found to be more susceptible in terms of smart material properties unlike EPDM synthetic rubber.
