Magnetic Compound Fluid (MCF) rubber is a new smart sensor obtained by mixing rubber with MCF. It has practicality of being a wide variety of new elements such as haptic sensor, capacitor and solar cell. We have planned to load MCF rubber sensor on a disaster corresponding robot, decommissioning robot, or robot for internal investigation in the nuclear building. However, common rubber has serious problem such as degradation in case of used for instrument in nuclear facility. Additionally, the behavior of MCF rubber on radiation environment is not investigated in detail. In this study, we investigated the fundamental study of sensing technique using MCF rubber under radiation environment. As first step, we clarified change of induced-voltage of MCF rubber, and mechanical property of the MCF rubber after irradiation.
