Abstract
The hollow structured magnetic CoFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method, and their magnetorheological (MR) characteristics were investigated in this paper. From transmission electron microscopy and density measurements, it was found that the CoFe2O4 nanoparticles possess a spherical shape with a narrow size distribution with a low density of 4.46 g/cm3. The MR fluid was then prepared by dispersing CoFe2O4 nanoparticles in mineral oil. Under applied magnetic fields, its rheological properties, such as shear stress, shear viscosity, storage modulus, and yield stress, were investigated via a rotational rheometer with a parallel-plate geometry. In addition, suspension stability of the CoFe2O4-based MR fluid was also examined by a Turbiscan apparatus, demonstrating that the CoFe2O4 suspension has good dispersion stability due to the unique hollow architecture and the relatively low density.
