Publication number: 20100221521Abstract: Shear thickening fluid suspoemulsions are shown to exhibit unique material properties that have potential application in a broad range of fields of use. Suspoemulsions containing shear thickening fluids as immiscible blends exhibit a nontrivial shear thickening response for volume fractions as low as 10% of STF in the silicone emulsion. Measurements indicate that the system shows phase inversion and it is even possible to form materials with a cocontinuous microstructure with interesting, hysteretic, shear sensitive behavior. Novel STF containing composites with rubbers are formed by blending the shear thickening fluid within the rubber precursors and then adding the catalyzing agent. It was possible to contain STF in each of the silicones tested and the rubbers exhibited different behavior with incased STF. Shear thickening fluid was added to open cell polyurethane to create a Foam-STF composite which was found to exhibit an significant shear thickening response.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2006Publication date: September 2, 2010Applicant: UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE OFFICE OF THE VICE PROVOST FOR RESEARCHInventors: Norman Wagner, John E.

Patent number: 7594429Abstract: A rheometric system includes an optical encoder coupled to a rotating shaft and configured to detect a rotational position of the shaft with respect to a reference. The rotational information is forwarded to a program or memory. An optical rotation plate is mechanically fastenable to the rotating shaft. A laser is provided to probe optical properties of a fluid sample proximate to the optical rotation plate. The system includes a detector system for measuring laser light scattered or transmitted through the sample chamber. The detector system is coupled to a memory that stores optical data collected after light impinges on the optical plate. Experimental fluid sample optical data and background optical data are each stored as a data structure that creates a point by point map of rotational position of the sample plate with the optical data collected thereat.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2006Date of Patent: September 29, 2009Assignees: Waters Investments Limited, University of DelawareInventors: Matthew Liberatore, Norman Wagner, Nigel Doe

Patent number: 7500385Abstract: An optical rheometer system includes a rheometer chamber that can retain a fluid sample to be measured. A light source is provided that creates a light beam incident on the fluid sample. A Peltier heating plate is provided that has a channel region located within the plate. The channel region is configured to substantially transmit a light beam emitted from the light source and incident on the Peltier heating plate. In one embodiment, a rotating optical plate is provided opposed to a first surface of the Peltier plate. The rotating optical plate is substantially transparent such that light from a light beam emerging from the channel region of the Peltier plate can pass through the optical plate and be recorded at a detector. Peltier elements in the Peltier heating plate are arranged to provide uniform heating of sample fluid located on the first surface of the Peltier heating plate. The Peltier elements are further arranged to permit light to pass through the channel substantially unattenuated.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2006Date of Patent: March 10, 2009Assignees: Waters Investments Limited, University of DelawareInventors: Matthew Liberatore, Norman Wagner, Peter Foster

Patent number: 7498276Abstract: An armor composite material has been invented which contains a fabric which has been impregnated with shear thickening fluid. This invention offers a ballistic resistant material that is more flexible and less bulky than comparable, conventional ballistic fabric. The material in the alternative can be puncture resistant. The invented material offers superior ballistic performance and/or puncture resistance compared to conventional ballistic fabric-based materials of equal thickness. The invented material can be applied to applications requiring armor that is compact and/or flexible, such as body armor, protective clothing and flexible protective devices and shields, and stab resistant clothing and devices.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2004Date of Patent: March 3, 2009Assignee: University of DelawareInventors: Norman Wagner, Eric D.

Publication number: 20060234572Abstract: The rheology of a colloidal PEG-based shear thickening fluid emulsified with silicone oil is studied in detail. A shear thickening response is observed in the viscosity-shear rate curves for volume fractions as low as 10% of STF in the silicone emulsion. From the log additivity rule, we prove the system to be classified as both a positive and negative deviating blend at zero shear. This interesting behavior is due to phase inversion. The rubbers are formed by emulsifying the shear thickening fluid within the rubber precursors and then adding the catalyzing agent. It was possible to contain STF in each of the silicones tested and the rubbers exhibited different behavior with incased STF. Shear thickening fluid was added to open cell polyurethane to create a Foam-STF composite which was found to exhibit an obvious shear thickening response. The foam composite became solid like and absorbed energy at high strains while still maintaining its fluid-like response at low strain rates.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2005Publication date: October 19, 2006Applicant: UD Technology CorporationInventors: Norman Wagner, John Kirkwood, Ronald Egres
