Abstract
The electrorheological (ER) behavior of suspensions in silicone oil of phosphoric ester cellulose powder (average particle size: 17.77 μm was investigated at elevated temperatures up to 100°C. For development of anhydrous ER suspensions for use at wide temperature range, the effect of temperature on ER activity has studied. Anhydrous ER suspensions were mixed with the phosphoric ester cellulose particles made from the phosphoric ester reactions of cellulose. During increasing temperature, not only analysis of electrical properties, such as dielectric constant, current density and electrical conductivity but also rheological properties of ER suspensions were studied. Current density, conductivity and electrorheological effect (τA/τ0) of phosphoric ester cellulose ER suspensions showed law dependence on temperature. Shear stress was closely related to the square of dielectric constant mismatch parameter (β2) under constant shear rate and electric field.
