Abstract
Magnetosensitive elastomers (MSE) are innovative high-tech materials that exhibit changed dynamic properties when an external magnetic field is applied. In this work, the influence of particle content, frequency, temperature and magnetic field on the maximum attenuation of isotropic MSEs was studied. Six particle content types were synthesised using carbonyl iron powder particles embedded in a room-temperature vulcanizing silicone rubber matrix. The characterization of the MSE samples was performed with a Physica MCR 501 rheometer from the Anton Paar Company that is equipped with a magnetorheological cell. All samples were characterized using frequency sweep tests within the lineal viscoelastic region. In addition, a four-parameter fractional derivative model was used and extended over a wide frequency range. The influence of temperature was modelled using the Arrhenius model, coupled with the fractional derivative model. The maximum attenuation is increased with frequency and magnetic field and is independent of temperature.
