Doubling the Magnetorheological Effect of Magnetic Elastomers

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: One of the most important properties of soft functionalized magnetic composite materials in view of their technological potential is given by the magnetorheological effect. It describes the change in rheological properties such as the shear modulus by the application of external magnetic fields. We demonstrate how computational materials design can support in approximately doubling the magnitude of this important phenomenon for magnetic elastomers. The key is to work with two perpendicular magnetic field directions. We expect future practical relevance of our concept.
