Development of Shear Thickening Material

As a new kind of functional material, excellent mechanical properties make Shear Thickening Material one of the most important materials in the field of protection against external forces. According to different raw material and preparation technology, several kinds of shear thickening systems were classified and analysed, and the corresponding mechanism was analysed. On the basis, the effects of disperse phase, high polymer weight and composition on the thickening properties were discussed. The application field of shear thickening materials was reviewed, and the direction of potential research value was pointed out.
