Abstract

In the present study, the Viscosity of the Viscoelastic Gel used in Magnetic Abrasive finishing is analysed based on the test conducted on the Compact Rheometer. Silicon-based Transformer oil is used as the base oil and Aluminium Stearate is used for increasing the abrasive holding capacity under very high magnetic field strength. The media prepared is commonly used for performing Nano-finishing of various metals' internal and external surfaces. The Viscosity of AP3 Grease, transformer oil and silicon oil is computed and compared using Rheometer, and the sample of viscoelastic Magnetic Abrasive media is prepared using these base oil. Six samples have been tested and the results have been analysed. The Media selected for the Viscoelastic magnetic abrasive finishing is tested after 30 days of preparation and compared its viscosity with the freshly prepared medium. The result highlighted the successful application of transformer oil and Silicon oil to prepare gel for the viscoelastic Magnetic Abrasive Finishing process.
