    Matrix dependence of the linear viscoelastic region in magnetorheological elastomers
    (SAGE, 2015-04-21) Agirre Olabide, Iker; Elejabarrieta, María Jesús; Bou-Ali, M. Mounir; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza
    The aim of this work is to study the linear viscoelastic region limit of isotropic magnetorheological elastomers at different compositions and working conditions. Regarding the synthesis process, the matrix and the particle content are analysed. The analysed matrixes are a natural rubber, a silicone rubber and ELASTOSIL® silicone, and three particle contents are synthesised. The influence of the characterisation variables on the linear viscoelastic limit, that is, frequency, external magnetic field and temperature, is also analysed. Strain sweep tests are used to determine the dynamic complex modulus. The loss factor and the storage modulus are analysed to define the linear viscoelastic limit of each isotropic magnetorheological elastomer sample in all the working conditions. The results show that the linear viscoelastic region of the magnetorheological elastomers is defined by the loss factor. Moreover, the volumetric particle content reduces and frequency increases the linear viscoelastic region of all the matrixes, whereas the external magnetic field and the temperature influences are matrix dependent.

    Characterization of the linear viscoelastic region of magnetorheological elastomers
    (SAGE, 2014-01-13) Agirre Olabide, Iker; Berasategui, Joanes; Elejabarrieta, María Jesús; Bou-Ali, M. Mounir; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza
    The linear viscoelastic behaviour of magnetorheological elastomers is analysed in this work according to their formulation and working conditions. This study comprised both the synthesis of different magnetorheological elastomers and the strain and frequency sweep characterization under different magnetic fields and temperatures. The characterization was performed by a Physica MCR 501 rheometer from Anton Paar, equipped with a magnetorheologic cell 70/1T MRD. In the synthesis with a given elastomeric matrix, samples with different magnetic particle content are studied with two types of curing conditions: under the action of a magnetic field (anisotropic magnetorheological elastomers) and without a magnetic field (isotropic magnetorheological elastomers). The working conditions are excitation frequency, temperature and the applied external magnetic field. In this work, a new procedure to determine the linear viscoelastic behaviour is proposed; the loss factor is analysed in addition to analysing the storage modulus to determine the linear viscoelastic region of each sample. The results show that high temperatures and magnetorheological elastomers with higher volume fraction of magnetic particles restrict the linear viscoelastic behaviour of magnetorheological elastomers.
