Novel smart thermoplastic magnetorheological elastomer composites containing micron-
sized magnetic carbonyl iron (CI) particles were prepared with a poly (styrene-ethylene …

Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) respond to applied magnetic fields with a change in
their mechanical properties. Within this work, iron oxide nanorods (IONRs) have been …

This work defines and examines four classes of magnetorheological elastomers (MREs)
based upon permutations of particle alignment–magnetization pairs. Particle alignments …
