“…The poor mechanical properties of silicone rubber, however, could not satisfy some application requirements. [8,9,14,26,28,46,52,[55][56][57]102,103, This is because of the wide range of mechanical properties that can be achieved by simply modifying the type and concentration of the constituent elements. The shortcomings of using a silicone matrix restrict the scope of its applications.…”

“…[2] While the passive state is the internal response of the material including micro-scale deformation due to external stimuli without changing shape and size, in which these advantages are commonly used for vibration absorbers. [9,10] Several terms have been used to acknowledge such smart materials. Therefore, stimulation by magnetic fields is appropriate in situations where wiring to electrodes, light irradiation, and other means are not possible.…”

Magnetorheological (MR) materials are classified as smart materials due to their responsiveness to external magnetic stimuli. Intensive research on MR materials has led to broad applications in several potential fields. A solid carrier matrix state called MR elastomer with its exceptional magnetic responsive feature is obtained by merging magnetizable particles within an elastomeric polymer. This integration results in outstanding characteristics on the rheological performances. Special prominence is given to the understanding of the base materials and fabrication as well as the functional behavior through various characterization methods. Broad applications of MREs are also explored to provide a profound market picture and to motivate researchers to develop novel technology.

“…Later, we reported the magnetic plasticine, in which the CI particles were used to substitute the traditional calcium salts dispersed within the paraffin wax/petroleum jelly mixing matrix [51]. Because of the low molecular weight of the paraffin wax and gel-like International Journal of Smart and Nano Materials 137 structure of the petroleum jelly, the as-prepared product possesses all the advantages of plasticine such as the easily shape-molding and good self-healing ability.…”

“…In comparison with the traditional MR materials, the MRPs are multifunctional. The thermosensitive MRPs can be stored in solid state while working as MRFs under the fluid model [51]. These novel features of the MRPs will find promising applications in vibration dissipation, damping, artificial muscles, drug delivery, valves, and actuators [52][53][54][55].…”

Different from the traditional magnetorheological (MR) fluids and elastomers, the magnetic particles in the plastic MR materials are not 'deadly' trapped in the polymer matrix; thus, the MR plastomers exhibit higher MR effects and lower sedimentation. The plastic MR materials have attracted increasing attention, and the relevant fundamental mechanisms and practical applications have been intensively studied due to their unique physical and mechanical properties. In this highlight, we have mainly reviewed the preparation and the rheological properties of the MR plastomers. The formation mechanism of the MR plastomers has also been briefly summarized.

“…Molecular materials are chemically flexible and thus good candidates to reach this goal [1,2]. The research on molecular magnetic systems has witnessed a rapid development for decades, aimed at clarifying magnetic phenomena, revealing magnetostructural correlations and constructing new magnetic materials with potential applications such as magnetic sensors, magnetic switchers and multifunctional magnetic devices [3][4][5]. Since purely 1D magnetic systems does not exhibit long-range order at finite temperature, the interchain interactions are crucial on the cooperative magnetic properties of the materials [6].…”
