Abstract
Purpose to study the temperature dependence of the viscosity of a water-based magnetic fluid.Method. Consists of measuring the dynamic viscosity of a magnetic fluid based on cobalt ferrite particles stabilized in water by a double layer of surfactant. Lauric acid (first layer) and a mixture of lauric acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate (second layer) were used as a stabilizer. Measurements were performed using a Brookfield DV-II+Pro rotational viscometer equipped with a coaxial cylinder system. The measuring system of the viscometer was thermostated using a KRIO-VT-12-1 thermostat.Results. The temperature dependences of dynamic viscosity were measured for three samples of magnetic fluid based on cobalt ferrite particles of various concentrations in the temperature range 0–90C°. The obtained temperature dependences of viscosity are radically different from the temperature dependences both predicted by known theories and experimentally observed for kerosene-based magnetic fluids. According to well-known theoretical models, the ratio of the viscosity of the magnetic fluid to the viscosity of the base medium is a certain universal function of particle concentration. Different models offer different types of this feature. But it clearly follows from them that the viscosity ratio should not depend on temperature. For magnetic fluids based on kerosene, it has been experimentally established that its relative viscosity decreases with increasing temperature. However, according to the results obtained, the relative viscosity of a water-based magnetic fluid does not decrease with increasing temperature, but increases significantly. That is, the viscosity of a water-based magnetic fluid decreases more slowly with increasing temperature than the viscosity of water.Conclusion. The observed dependencies completely contradict the known patterns, both theoretical and experimentally established for kerosene-based magnetic fluids. The results obtained may be useful for the further development of the theory of aqueous colloidal solutions with particle stabilization by a double layer of surfactants.
