Abstract
This research reports the findings of a study investigating multiple properties of Magnetic Compound Fluid (MCF) composite materials, recently developed as MCF Rubber, which is considered to possess such properties as a feeling temperature, electro conductivity, a dynamic characteristic, and a magnetic characteristic. This study specifically focuses on electro conductivity, and the experiment of electric characteristic is conducted, in which resistance decreases because of pressure regarding electro conductivity, and the relationship between pressure and resistance is also indicated. The experiment also investigated impedance characteristic in the case of the impression A.C. voltage and pressurizing of MCF Rubber, and compared each impedance characteristic in accordance with the change of the electrode. The experiment result showed that MCF Rubber approximated to capacitance, and reacted to the frequency and the electrode change sensitively. Results also indicated that the change of electrode yielded a different component in the electric circuit at the contact area, which could be remarkable characteristic and applied to various fields. Findings also point to the need to approximate of relationship between MCF Rubber and pressure, and to examine equal circuit.
