Shear thickening fluids and their applications

Shear thickening fluids (STFs) are a new type of nanosuspension, which are formed by dispersing micro and nanoparticles in a dispersant. STFs are easily deformed under the action of a low shear rate. However, they instantly transform into a hard solid-like state at a high shear rate. After the remov...
