We are creating our magnetorheological elastomers (MRE) by mixing addition silicone with ferromagnetic particles (Fe85Si15, average size 27.2 um). Using addition silicone as the base material for the dispersion of the ferromagnetic particles allows wide possibilities of adaptation of material properties, material shape adaptation by molding or the possibility of attaching the soft material to solid structures. Additives can be used to adapt the material properties for the specific application. We are using this material in a number of prototypes that continues to grow. Two of the larger projects are Beak and Intestino prototypes.
