▎ 摘　　要

Novel Fe3O4/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) composite nanoparticles were synthesized and confirmed by FT-IR spectra as good candidates for magnetic stimuli-responsive magnetorheological (MR) materials. The morphology of Fe3O4/RGO was observed by both scanning and transmission electron microscopy and their sedimentation stability improved due to a decreased density of the synthesized composites. The MR performance of the Fe3O4/RGO-based fluid was investigated with a rotational rheometer, and the Cho-Choi-Jhon model of the rheological equation of state was adopted to explain their performances for the entire shear rate region.
