Electrorheological fluid

Electrorheological (ER) fluids are suspensions of acutely accomplished non-conducting particles (up to 50 micrometres diameter) in an electrically careful fluid. The credible bendability of these fluids changes reversibly by an adjustment of up to 100,000 in acknowledgment to an electric field. For example, a archetypal ER aqueous can go from the bendability of a aqueous to that of a gel, and back, with acknowledgment times on the adjustment of milliseconds. The aftereffect is sometimes alleged the Winslow effect, afterwards its discoverer the American artist Willis Winslow, who acquired a US apparent on the aftereffect in 1947 1 and wrote an commodity
