Abstract
In this paper, high density rigid polyurethane foam is used as sandwich skeleton and shear thickening fluid as material core. A shear thickening fluid/polyurethane sandwich structure with light impact resistance was designed and fabricated. High strain rate impact test was carried out. It was found that STF-2/PU reached the peak load of 4978N in 13 ms after receiving 20 J impact energy, and the energy absorption ratio was as high as 43%. The shear thickening fluid/polyurethane honeycomb sandwich foam prepared by secondary foaming process has stable structure and can effectively absorb impact energy to achieve good protection effect.
