AI Article Synopsis
- Ferroelastic composites are advanced materials that exhibit significant changes in their mechanical properties when subjected to magnetic fields.
- The study shows that these effects are primarily due to the movement of magnetic particles within a polymer matrix, which is influenced by the applied magnetic field.
- The text also introduces a model that explains how the arrangement of these particles is affected by the external magnetic influence, enhancing our understanding of magnetoactive elastomers.
Article Abstract
Ferroelastic composites are smart materials with unique properties including large magnetodeformational effects, strong field enhancement of the elastic modulus and magnetic shape memory. On the basis of mechanical tests, direct microscopy observations and magnetic measurements we conclude that all these effects are caused by reversible motion of the magnetic particles inside the polymeric matrix in response to an applied field. The basic points of a model accounting for particle structuring in a magnetoactive elastomer under an external field are presented.
