Morphological features of magnetorheological elastomer degradation under a natural weathering environment.

It is well known in the field of materials science that a substance's longevity is significantly influenced by its environment. Everything begins with the initial contact on a material's surface. This influence will then deteriorate and have an extended negative impact on the strength of the material.

The Effect of Graphite Additives on Magnetization, Resistivity and Electrical Conductivity of Magnetorheological Plastomer.

Common sensors in many applications are in the form of rigid devices that can react according to external stimuli. However, a magnetorheological plastomer (MRP) can offer a new type of sensing capability, as it is flexible in shape, soft, and responsive to an external magnetic field. In this study, graphite (Gr) particles are introduced into an MRP as an additive, to investigate the advantages of its electrical properties in MRPs, such as conductivity, which is absolutely required in a potential sensor.
