ABSTRACT:
A magnetostrictive composite having large magnetostriction by virtue of 2-50 vol. % magnetostrictive particles dispersed throughout a resin matrix formed from a thermosetting resin, an amine curing agent, fumed silica and a flexibilizing agent, wherein the magnetostrictive particles are aligned in the direction of their magnetic easy axes by the presence of a magnetic field prior to or during curing of the resin matrix. In an exemplary embodiment, an epoxy-Terfenol composite is formed by mixing an epoxy resin, fumed silica, a cycloaliphatic amine curing agent, and a flexibilizing agent that is a flexible diepoxide of EEW 390-470 or a mixture of a high molecular weight polyamine of MW 2000-5000 and a low molecular weight polyamine of MW 230-450 with Terfenol particles and curing the mixture in the presence of a magnetic field.
