Tunable magneto-rheological elastomers and processes for their manufacture

摘要: Novel magnetorheological elastomer compositions are provided. The elastomers (MREs) may have aligned or randomly arranged magnetizable particles in a thermoset thermoplastic matrix. be coated to reduce corrosion and/or improve bonding between the particle and flake-shaped. MREs matrices selected from group consisting of hydrogenated nitrile rubbers, butyl ethylene-propylene copolymers terpolymers, ethylene-acrylic copolymers, fluorinated elastomers, silphenylene-siloxanes, silarylene-siloxanes, poly(carborane-siloxane-acetylene)s blends thereof. also styrene-butadiene block copolyesters, polyamides, polyether amides, polyolefin-elastomers other than polyalpha olefins, chlorinated polyethylenes, ionomers, chlorosulfonated thereof, polyurethane with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinylindene fluoride (PVDF), polycarbonate, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS).
