제올라이트 분말을 기본재료로 하는 전기유변유체의 전기 및 유변학적 특성이 연구되었다. 전기장 인가시 높은 한계응력을 얻기 위하여 비교적 유전상슈가 큰 5종류의 유전유체를 선택하여 제올라이트 분말과 혼합하여 전기유변유체를 준비하였다. Couette형 rheometer를 이용하여 유변유체의 한계응력을 인가된 전기장 및 온도의 함수로서 측정하였다. 이중 chlorinate hydrocabon oil과 제올라이트 분말을 혼합한 전기유변유체의 한계응력은 6KPa(E=4KV/mm, T=$25^{\circ}C$)로서 최대치를 기록하였다. 측정된 한계응력은 온도가 상승하면 점차 감소하는 반면 전류밀도는 온도에 따라 증가하였다. 전류밀도에 대한 Arrhenius 그라프에서 전기전도에 대한 활성화 에너지는 약 0.7eV였으며 이는 제올라이트 분말에 포함된 $Na^{+}$ 이온의 확산에 기인하는 것으로 분석되었다.

실리콘 오일에 인산처리 셀룰로오스 분말을 분산시킨 비수계 전기유변성(ER) 유체 의 전기유변 거동을 상온에서 최대 2.5KV/mm의 전기장하에서 실험하였다. 넓은 온도 영역 에서 사용이 가증한 비수계 ER 유체를 개발하기 위해 셀룰로오스의 인산 에스테르 반응이 ER 유체의 전기유변효과에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 먼저 여러 가지의 인산처리 농도로 처리된 인산처리 셀룰로오스 미립자를 분산시킨 ER 유체를 제조한 후 ER 유체의 유전상수, 전류밀도 및 전기전도도 등과 같은 전기적 특성을 측정하였으며 ER 유체의 전기유변 특성 또한 측정하였다. 인산처리 셀룰로오스가 분산된 비수계 ER 유체의 전류밀도는 셀룰로오스 의 인산 에스테르 반응에서의 인산처리 농도에 의해 조절할수 있음을 알수있었으며 셀룰로 오스의 인산처리 농도가 2.5 M과 3.0 M 사이일 때 인산처리 셀룰로오스가 첨가된 비수계 ER 유체의 전기유변효과 ($\tau$/$\tau$0)가 가장 높게 측정되었다.

This paper demonstrates a variable capacitor using fluids as dielectric material and investigates the possibility of its application to a magnetic resonance microscopy's coil. The capacitor structure was integrated with a microfluidic channel and the capacitance was measured while changing the filling percentage of fluids in the channel. The measured capacitance when filling DI water and mineral oil was changed from 1.7 pF to 12 pF and from 1.7 pF to 2 pF, respectively.

Abstract Electrorheological effect on the dispersive system of polarizable fine powder/dielectric oil has been investigated. ER effect was explained divided into following 3 mechanisms; (1) surface conductance, (2) bulk conductance, and (3) induced polarization. Mathematical model which predicts the interactive force between two fine particles in the electrorheological fluid has been introduced based on the induced polarization mechanism. This model may provide guide to select materials for strong ER effect. The attractive force between two particles was calculated using the above model for the selected 7 materials such as ceramics, ferrites, polymers etc. From the calculation result, it was found that the ceramics and ferrites are good materials which show a strong ER effect.

Electrorheological (ER) fluids, typically composed of particles having higher dielectric constant or electric conductivity than that of suspending fluids with a low viscosity, undergo dramatic, reversible changes when exposed to an external electric field. Among various electroactive materials, we put our efforts on inorganic materials including zeolite, MCM-41, MCM-41/polyaniline composite and SBA-15/polyaniline composites. Their preparation and ER characteristics are introduced.

In this paper, we have numerically investigated two-dimensional dielectrophoretic (DEP) motions of a single particle suspended freely in a viscous fluid, interacting with a nearby nonconducting planar wall, under an externally applied uniform direct-current electric field. Particularly, we solve the Maxwell equation with a large sharp jump in the electric conductivity at the particle-fluid interface and then integrate the Maxwell stress tensor to compute the DEP force on the particle. Results show that, under an electric field parallel to the wall, one particle is always repelled to move far away from the wall and the motion depends strongly on the particle-wall spacing and the particle conductivity. The motion strength vanishes when the particle is as conductive as the fluid and increases as the conductivity deviates further from that of the fluid.

In this paper, we proposed a novel ethanol concentration sensor using microfluidic metamaterial absorber. The metamaterial absorber comprises a split-ring-cross resonator(SRCR) and a microfluidic channel. The SRCR can generate LC resonance that is very sensitive to changes in the effective dielectric constant around the capacitive gap. In addition, microfluidic channels can change the effective dielectric constant of the dielectric substrate by using an infinitesimal quantity of a liquid on the order of microliters. The proposed absorber can detect the electrical properties of different concentration of ethanol. The performance of the proposed absorber is demonstrated using the absorption measurements of a fabricated prototype sample with waveguides. In addition, the simulated results and measurement results show good agreement.

When two particles close to each other are in electrophoretic motion, each particle is under the influence of the non-uniform electric field generated by the other particle. Two particles may attract or repel each other due to the dielectric force depending on their positions in the non-uniform electric field. It is shown analytically that two adjusting rigid particles can form an aggregate due to the dielectric interaction. To verify the validity of the theoretical prediction, an experiment is carried out by using a microchannel. In the experiment, AC electric field is used to eliminate cumbersome electroosmotic flow. The experimental result shows that the particles form a chain-like structure, which is typically observed in electro-rheological fluid, due to the dielectric interaction.
