AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing magnetorheological fluids suffer from insufficient stability due to the easy sedimentation and aggregation of magnetic particles, and high zero-field viscosity, which limits their response capability under magnetic fields.

Method used

Magnetic particles with polysiloxane surface modification are used. A polysiloxane coating layer is formed on the surface of the magnetic particles through hydrolysis and dehydration condensation reaction, which improves particle dispersibility and anti-settling properties. Combined with base liquid and additives, a magnetorheological fluid with low zero-field viscosity and high shear yield stress is prepared.

Benefits of technology

It significantly improves the long-term stability and anti-settling properties of magnetorheological fluids, ensuring low viscosity at zero field and high shear yield stress under magnetic field, making it suitable for vehicle shock absorption systems and improving the performance and service life of the shock absorption system.

Abstract

A magnetorheological fluid, and a preparation method therefor and the use thereof. The magnetorheological fluid contains polysiloxane surface modified magnetic particles. The polysiloxane is obtained by means of polycondensation of at least one silane having a general formula of X-Si-(OR)3, wherein X is selected from a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl with a carbon atom number of 10-16, and R is selected from a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl with the carbon atom number of 1-3, and the weight-average molecular weight of the polysiloxane is 500-20000.
