Problems solved by technology

[0003] The inventors of the present invention have discovered that electrorheological elastomers have the following disadvantages: the relative electrorheological effect is not high, thereby limiting the range of stiffness regulation
In the prior art, people improve the relative electrorheological effect of electrorheological elastomers by preparing different particles, changing the polymer matrix, improving the interface between particles and the matrix, etc., especially preparing isotropic electrorheological elastomers, improving The relative electrorheological effect of electrorheological elastomers has always been in the shear modulus in the direction perpendicular to the electric field, but it is difficult to improve the compressive modulus in the direction parallel to the electric field. The above shortcomings are difficult to meet in bridge construction, aerospace, Applied in the control shock absorption of precision instruments; adding conductive materials to electrorheological elastomers can improve the relative electrorheological effect in principle, but due to its high conductivity, it is easy to increase the risk of breakdown of electrorheological elastomers, and there has been no relevant research progress
