Field-induced rheological characterization of nano/micro-scaled suspensions based on a multi-peak fitting method

Nano/micro-scaled suspensions used in damping systems, bulletproof materials and flexible machining regions are developing towards external energy field control and multi-type and multi-scale dispersed phase particles. However, the above-mentioned changes make the rheological properties of the fluid more complex, which cannot be characterized efficiently with high quality by traditional constitutive equations. In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, based on the multi-peak fitting characterization method of the Gaussian function, the field-induced rheological constitutive equation of a multi-scale particle suspension turbidity system (MRSTPF as an example) was established. Under the condition of shear distribution and external magnetic field affection, the rheological characteristic curves of the dispersion system were measured using an Antompa MCR301 rheometer. The Origin software was used to fit and characterize the above-mentioned rheological data. The results indicate that the method can effectively establish field-induced constitutive equations of different dispersed systems, and the fitting goodness evaluation parameters are above 95% (R-square) and 90% (adjusted R-square) respectively.
