Abstract

Composition, synthesis and structural properties of ferrofluids and magnetorheological fluids are reviewed and compared. The similarities and main differences between the two types of magnetically controllable fluids are outlined and exemplified in the paper. Chemical synthesis and structural characterization of magnetizable fluids for engineering and biomedical applications are thoroughly discussed.
