Abstract
Nine kinds of experimental soft magnetic resin composites containing SUS447J1 stainless steel particles as filler were prepared. A UDMA/MAA resin with an MAA mole fraction of 0.67 was used as a matrix resin. The effects of three levels of 4-META content and three levels of filler content on the setting and flexural properties were studied. Working time and setting time significantly increased with increase of 4-META and filler contents. Flexural strength significantly increased with increase of 4-META content but with decrease of filler content. Elastic modulus simply increased with increase of both 4-META and filler contents. Although the flexural strength obtained was low, results were considered promising being the first step of this novel development.
