![Types of fluids[5]. At low shear rates, shear thinning behavior appears, and with increasing shear rate, the viscosity increases to a higher value and turns into shear thickening. These fluids are characterized by the fact that removing the shear stress leads to a decrease in viscosity.

Shear thickening fluids STFs are a new kind of materials that consist of nano/micro particles that dispersed in another material such as polymer. In this review paper, the definition of this type of materials and the mechanism of its work are explained. In addition, the main factors that can effect on this behavior and their applications in differe...

... kind of materials show a solid like behavior for a split second when the stress is applied on the material and return to its liquid behavior after the removal of stress [1]- [4]. Figure 1 shows the two main types of fluids: Non-Newtonian (the viscosity change with changing the shear rate) such as shear thinning (pseudoplastic) and shear thickening (dilatent), and Newtonian fluids (the viscosity constant with shear rate change) [5]. [5]. ...
