The rheological properties of shear thickening fluid reinforced with SiC nanowires

The rheological properties of shear thickening fluid (STF) reinforced with SiC nanowires were investigated in this paper. Pure STF consists of 56 vol% silica nano-particles and polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400) solvent was fabricated; and a specific amount of SiC nanowires were dispersed into this p...
