The generation of smart materials with magnetic properties modulated by rare earth substitution has potential applications for developing pressure and magnetic field sensors, actuators for microfluidic and high-density memory devices. This motivates to study the influence on the magnetorheological properties of CoFe-PDMS structured elastomers when substituting iron by samarium in the magnetic cobalt ferrites nanoparticles.
