Magnetorheological Performance of Nano Magnetorheological (MR) Fluid Based on NiFe2O4 Nanoparticles

Abstract

The magnetorheological performance of nano magnetorheological (MR) fluids based on iron nickel oxide quasi spherical nanoparticles (NiFe 2 O 4 ) was investigated. The field induced viscoelastic and rheological behavior of nano MR fluids were explored with varying strain amplitude and shear rates. The fluids were subjected to steady state flow conditions and oscillatory strain sweep test under an applied magnetic field. It was observed that the shear stress was proportionally increasing with respect to the applied field. The lower values of loss modulus (G '' ) indicates the formation of long bundles of thin and thick lengthened nano and micro cluster chains of nickel ferrite particles showing an enhanced magnetorheological response. The maximum shear stress was achieved at an optimum value of particle concentration, within 0 -1.191 T magnetic flux density range. The study also reveals the increase in fluid sedimentation stability.

Magnetorheological fluids: A concise review of composition, physicochemical properties, and models

“…The addition of surfactants reduces the interfacial tension at the magnetic particle-liquid medium surface and increases wettability, where the surfactant contains both, the polar and nonpolar groups (Lijesh et al, 2016;Son, 2018;Wu et al, 2016). Besides many compounds as surfactants mainly organic acids are used having carboxyl group but different carbon chain lengths like citric acid, stearic acid (Yagnasri et al, 2021), oleic acid (Charles, 2002;Lo´pez-Lo´pez et al, 2005;Sarkar and Hirani, 2015), palmitic acid (Ashtiani and Hashemabadi, 2015;Fonseca et al, 2016;Rabbani et al, 2015), myristic (Ashtiani and Hashemabadi, 2015;Carlson and Jolly, 2000), and lauric acid (Ashtiani and Hashemabadi, 2015;Bica et al, 2007;Carlson and Jolly, 2000;Huang et al, 2015). Surfactants improve the interfacial activity of magnetic particles and their dispersion.…”

TEM Image Analysis of Ceramic Nanoparticles Based on Machine Learning

“…At present, many of the parent functional structural materials discovered in new materials already have such functional structures, such as perovskite-like pressure Electrostrictive material element SrBi4-xLaxTiO15, magnetoresistive material (La,Ca)MnO3, resistance-induced stress-stretch functional material element Pb(Mg,Nb)O3, piezoelectric element Pb(Zr,Ti)O3, etc. Therefore, similar perovskite functional structure materials are a very important class of material matrix functional structures in a class of functional composite materials, and their main research results have important international scientific and technological significance and important economic application values [14][15].…”

“…The error sum of squares criterion can be used to describe the total error sum of squares obtained when n data samples are clustered into C clusters. From formula (14), the value of the error sum of squares depends on the C clusters. The center average of the class.…”
