Stretchable Magneto-Mechanical Configurations with High Magnetic Sensitivity Based on "Gel-Type" Soft Rubber for Intelligent Applications.

ABSTRACT: "Gel-type" soft and stretchable magneto-mechanical composites made of silicone rubber and iron particles are in focus because of their high magnetic sensitivity, and intelligence perspective. The "intelligence" mentioned here is related to the "smartness" of these magneto-rheological elastomers (MREs) to tune the "mechanical stiffness" and "output voltage" in energy-harvesting applications by switching magnetic fields. Hence, this work develops "gel-type" soft composites based on rubber reinforced with iron particles in a hybrid with piezoelectric fillers such as barium titanate. A further aspect of the work relies on studying the mechanical stability of intelligence and the stretchability of the composites. For example, the stretchability was 105% (control), and higher for 158% (60 per 10
