Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed are a shear thickening fluid (STF) comprising solid particles and a dispersion medium, wherein the solid particles comprise silica particles as a first component and carbon nanoparticles as a second component and a method for preparing a shear thickening fluid, comprising mixing silica particles, a dispersion medium for silica particles, and a carbon nanoparticle dispersion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A shear thickening fluid (STF) comprising solid particles and a dispersion medium, wherein the solid particles comprise silica particles as a first component and carbon nanoparticles as a second component, wherein the carbon nanoparticles are graphene oxide nanoparticles, graphene nanoparticles or graphite oxide nanoparticles and are contained in an amount of 5-20 wt % based on the total weight of the shear thickening fluid, wherein the silica particles are fumed type particles having a bimodal particle size distribution which are distributed non-uniformly in the dispersion medium and are contained in an amount of 5-30 wt % based on the total weight of the shear thickening fluid, wherein the fumed type silica particles include small-diameter silica particles and large-diameter silica particles, a size of the small-diameter silica particles being 50-100 nm and a size of the large-diameter silica particles being 110-150 nm, wherein a weight ratio of the small-diameter silica particles and the large-diameter silica particles is 6:4 to 9:1. 2. The shear thickening fluid of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion medium is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, ethylene glycol, and polypropylene glycol. 3. A shock-absorbing material containing the shear thickening fluid of claim 1 .
