AbstractIt has been established that the electroviscosity effect of polyzwitterionic (PZI) aqueous solutions is more considerable than and acts in a direction opposite to that of aqueous polyelectrolyte solutions. Temperature and electric field strength influence the electroviscosity of PZI aqueous solutions in parallel, though the reasons for these effects are quite different. The unusual electroviscosity behaviour of PZI solutions is explained by a ‘core-shell’ model for the structural organization of PZI macromolecules, suggesting that cluster formation is due to intensive dipoledipole interactions between monomer units of the same or of different macromolecules.

Electrorheological (ER) characteristics of ER fluids (ERF) containing bacterial cellulose (BC) particles in silicone oil was investigated as a function of particle water content, DC electric field strength and particle concentration. It was found that the existence of water in BC particles strongly influenced the performance of water-activated ERF based on BC particles. Around 8.8 wt% water, yield stress reached its maximum valve of 1118 Pa after which it decreased with increasing water content. At the same water content, yield stress increased linearly with increasing in either electric field strength or particle concentration. The ERF based on BC particles was introduced into the poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) gels to prepare electric field sensitive composite gel. Electric fields were applied to these composite gels using flexible electrodes. Compressions of these gels with varying PDMS/ERF ratios were confirmed by the electrode displacement. It was found that 50/50 PDMS/ERF gel exhibited the maximum displacement of 102um at 2 kV/mm electric field.

A series of high performance ER fluids newly manufactured in our laboratory are presented. The yield stress of those ER fluids can reach several tens of kPa, 100 kPa and even 200 kPa, respectively. For understanding the high shear stress effect a model is proposed base on the electric field induced molecular bounding effect. The main effective factors in fabricating the high performance ER are discussed.
