DOD-06 Magnetic Properties of PDMS Embedded with Strotium Ferrite Particles Cured Under Different Magnetic Field Conditions
Soft materials embedded with hard magnetic particles have recently gained widespread recognition as small-scale actuators due to their capacity to be a rapid and precise shape-shifting material[1, 2]. Strontium ferrite (SrFe 12 O 19 ) particles have been shown to be a great candidate for such applic...

Soft materials embedded with hard magnetic particles have recently gained widespread recognition as small-scale actuators due to their capacity to be a rapid and precise shape-shifting material[1, 2]. Strontium ferrite (SrFe 12 O 19 ) particles have been shown to be a great candidate for such applications, since it is an inert hard magnetic material [3]. The study of magnetic properties of hard-magnetic soft materials is a critical step to better design these upcoming actuators.<br/>The preparation of such material is done by mixing the particles into the uncured elastomer (PDMS), in liquid form, and then pouring the mixture in a mold for curing. If the samples are subjected to a magnetic field during the curing process, chains of particles are formed in the direction of the applied field (see Fig 1). We expect that the individual particles rotate in the fluid such that their easy axes becomes parallel to the curing field, thus creating an easy axis in the composite in this same direction. The magnetic properties of such types of composites, or for any other soft matrix, cannot yet be found in literature.<br/>In this study, we analyzed three concentrations of strontium ferrite particles in PDMS under three field configurations, resulting in 9 different samples. The concentrations used were 1:1, 2:1 and 4:1 ratios of PDMS to strontium ferrite per weight.
