- Abstract:
- The purpose of this paper was to present the manufacturing process of magnetically polarized (anisotropic) magnetorheological elastomers (MRE) and to investigate their magnetomechanical properties. The materials were based on a thermoplastic matrix, iron particles and additives which improved the plasticity of a resulting composite. A procedure was developed to create specimens with magnetic field-oriented microstructure. MRE with various chemical compositions were subjected to cyclic shearing with the use of a dedicated test stand. The results revealed that selected properties of magnetorheological elastomers differ markedly depending on the plasticity of the matrix.
