Anisotropic Mechanical Properties

This study is devoted to the magneto-mechanical characterization of heterogeneous magnetoactive elastomers based on an elastic polydimethylsiloxane matrix with embedded spherical magnetic soft microparticles and magnetic hard microparticles of irregular shape. An issue of the anisotropic mechanical properties of these smart composites is considered. Non-magnetized and pre-magnetized specimens are characterized using a planar shear and axial loading in an externally applied homogeneous magnetic field. The field direction differs relative to the direction of the field used for the specimens pre-magnetization. Results of the different methods allow comparison of the tensile shear moduli for the samples with an initially identical composition. Obtained results demonstrate a strong correlation between the composite behaviour and orientation of the magnetic field used for the pre-magnetization of the sample relative to the external field applied to a sample during the test. Composites pre-magnetized in the direction parallel to an applied mechanical force and external magnetic field show higher magnetorheological response than composites pre-magnetized transversally to the force and the field. Application of the external field directed opposite to the direction of the pre-magnetization reduces the observed stiffening. Moreover, in this situation a softening of the material can be observed, depending on the magnitude of the external field and the field used for pre-magnetization. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Heterogeneous materials: metastable and non-ergodic internal structures’.

Spatially Inhomogeneous

On the basis of the Waldmann equation for neutral particles with spin, the influence of a homogeneous magnetic field on spin-diffusion in a gas has been studied. The spin-diffusion constant for the components of the magnetic moment perpendicular to the external field is decreased. Furthermore a transverse spin-flux is found which leads to a shift of the resonance frequency if the magnetization is spatially inhomogeneous. Both effects vanish at high densities.

Magneto Rheological

Magneto Rheological Elastomers (MREs) are composite materials based on an elastomer filled by magnetic particles. Anisotropic MRE can be easily manufactured by curing the material under homogeneous magnetic field which creates column of particles. The magnetic and elastic properties are actually coupled making these MREs suitable for energy conversion. From these remarkable properties, an energy harvesting device is considered through the application of a DC bias magnetic induction on two MREs as a metal piece is applying an AC shear strain on them. Such strain therefore changes the permeabilities of the elastomers, hence generating an AC magnetic induction which can be converted into AC electrical signal with the help of a coil. The device is simulated with a Finite Element Method software to examine the effect of the MRE parameters, the DC bias magnetic induction and applied shear strain (amplitude and frequency) on the resulting electrical signal.

A homogeneous magnetic field of 1.1 T strength exhibits a significant influence on the activity of the enzyme ascorbic acid oxidase in vitro. A Lineweaver-Burk plot of the reaction shows the typical pattern of a mixed-type inhibition, i.e. a larger rate of reaction at low substrate concentrations and a smaller rate of reaction at high substrate concentration than that of the control without magnetic field applied.

Cement-based materials prepared with activated water induced by a magnetic field or electric field represent a possible solution to environmental issues caused by the worldwide utilization of chemical admixtures. In this contribution, electric- and magnetic-activated water have been produced. The workability and mechanical properties of cement mortar prepared with this activated water have been investigated. The results indicate that the pH and absorbance (Abs) values of the water varied as the electric and magnetic field changed, and their values increased significantly, exhibiting improved activity compared with that of the untreated water. In addition, activated water still retains activity within 30 min of the resting time. The fluidity of the cement paste prepared with electric-activated water was significantly larger than that of the untreated paste. However, the level of improvement differed with the worst performance resulting from cement paste prepared with alternating voltage activated water. In terms of mechanical properties, both compressive strength and flexural strength obtained its maximum values at 280 mT with two processing cycles. The compressive strength increased 26% as the curing time increased from 7 days to 28 days and flexural strength increased by 31%. In addition, through the introduction of magnetic-activated water into cement mortar, the mechanical strength can be maintained without losing its workability when the amount of cement is reduced.

Potential Applications

Chitosan-based films have a diverse range of potential applications but are currently limited in terms of commercial use due to a lack of methods specifically designed to produce thin films in high volumes. To address this limitation directly, hydrogels prepared from chitosan, chitosan-tetraethoxy silane, also known as tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and chitosan-glutaraldehyde have been used to prepare continuous thin films using a slot-die technique which is described in detail. By way of preliminary analysis of the resulting films for comparison purposes with films made by other methods, the mechanical strength of the films produced was assessed. It was found that as expected, the hybrid films made with TEOS and glutaraldehyde both show a higher yield strength than the films made with chitosan alone. In all cases, the mechanical properties of the films were found to compare very favorably with similar measurements reported in the literature. In order to assess the possible influence of the direction in which the hydrogel passes through the slot-die on the mechanical properties of the films, testing was performed on plain chitosan samples cut in a direction parallel to the direction of travel and perpendicular to this direction. It was found that there was no evidence of any mechanical anisotropy induced by the slot die process. The examples presented here serve to illustrate how the slot-die approach may be used to create high-volume, high-area chitosan-based films cheaply and rapidly. It is suggested that an approach of the type described here may facilitate the use of chitosan-based films for a wide range of important applications.
