MAGNETIC LIQUIDS
  1. Positioning of objects
  2. Sealing, hermetic seals
  3. Viscosity change of base liquid
  4. Control of liquid flows for the surface treatment, cooling, convection etc.
  5. Magnetically active lubricants
  6. Hydromechanic magnetic bearing
  7. Temporary fixation and orientation of parts
  8. Separation of substances with different densities
  9. Indicating and locating of objects which are difficult to detect
  10. Optical blocking devices for the interruption of light
  11. Damper with controlled characteristic
  12. Oscillation damper for energy transformation
HINT: Magnetic liquids (ferrofluids) are colloidal solutions of extremely small ferromagnetic particles (iron, ferrite, cobalt, nickel etc.) in base liquids (water, oils, kerosene, synthetic liquids).
