Abstract
Different-sized particles dispersed electrorheological (ER) fluids were fabricated with poly(acryloamidino diethylenediamine) to observe the influence of the particle size on ER behaviors. The fine particles dispersed ER suspension showed stable shear stress under a DC electric field. On the other hand, the rough particles dispersed suspension showed trembling shear stress which is divided into four regions in a plot of shear stress against shear rate. Our suggested spring–damper model equation treated the wide range of shear rate and specific (trembling) behaviors of shear stress in ER fluids. In this study, we successfully obtained various ER fluids showing different behaviors just by changing the size of particles in the ER fluids. All of the curves of the shear stress plotted against shear rate were fitted well by our spring–damper model.
