TY - CHAP A1 - Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail A1 - Kramarenko, Elena Yu ED - Domracheva, Natalia ED - Caporali, Maria ED - Rentschler, Eva T1 - Highly Responsive Magnetoactive Elastomers (Chapter 7) T2 - Novel Magnetic Nanostructures N2 - This chapter introduces composite smart materials known as magnetoactive (MAEs) or magnetorheological elastomers. It starts by defining these materials and distinguishing them from relevant magnetorheological fluids and ferrofluids. It then gives the overview of constitutive materials for the polymer matrix and filler particles. Next, the influence of external magnetic field on physical properties of MAEs is discussed. The emphasis is made on mechanical properties, which are the most important for real-world applications. In particular, magnetomechanical effects such as magnetostriction, magnetodeformation, and magnetorheological effect are discussed. The magnetic Payne effect is presented as an example of a nonlinear behavior. Electromagnetic and acoustic properties are also considered. The chapter finishes with the brief discussion of the future prospects in research and development of MAEs.

A1 - Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail T1 - Temperature-dependent magnetic properties of a magnetoactive elastomer: Immobilization of the soft-magnetic filler JF - Journal of Applied Physics N2 - The magnetic properties of a magnetoactive elastomer (MAE) filled with mu m-sized soft-magnetic iron particles have been experimentally studied in the temperature range between 150 K and 310 K. By changing the temperature, the elastic modulus of the elastomer matrix was modified, and it was possible to obtain magnetization curves for an invariable arrangement of particles in the sample and in the case when the particles were able to change their position within the MAE under the influence of magnetic forces. At low (less than 220 K) temperatures, when the matrix becomes rigid, the magnetization of the MAE does not show a hysteresis behavior, and it is characterized by a negative value of the Rayleigh constant. At room temperature, when the polymer matrix is compliant, a magnetic hysteresis exists where the dependence of the differential magnetic susceptibility on the magnetic field exhibits local maxima. The appearance of these maxima is explained by the elastic resistance of the matrix to the displacement of particles under the action of magnetic forces.

A1 - Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail T1 - Renormalization of the critical exponent for the shear modulus of magnetoactive elastomers JF - Scientific Reports N2 - It is shown that the critical exponent for the effective shear modulus of a composite medium where a compliant polymer matrix is filled with ferromagnetic particles may significantly depend on the external magnetic field. The physical consequence of this dependence is the critical behavior of the relative magnetorheological effect.

The analysis is performed in situ and is based on optical microscopy, spread optical reflection and optical profilometry measurements. Optical profilometry analysis shows that the responsivity of magnetic field-induced surface roughness with respect to external magnetic field is in the range of 1 mu m/T. A significant hysteresis of surface modifications takes place for increasing and decreasing fields. Investigations of shape of sessile water droplets deposited on the MAE surface reveal that field-induced topographical modifications affect the contact angle of water at the surface. This effect is reversible and the responsivity to magnetic field is in the range of 20 degrees/T. Despite the increased surface roughness, the apparent contact angle decreases with increasing field, which is attributed to the field-induced protrusion of hydrophilic microparticles from the surface layer.
