MR fluids represent a class of smart materials that respond to an applied electric or magnetic field with a dramatic change in rheological behavior. The main advantage of MR dampers is that they require very little control power, have simple construction, quick response to control signal, and only few moving parts. MR fluid has become really popular in the last twenty years due to their efficiency and application in many fields. In this paper, we are using different compositions of base fluid such as Silicone Oil, Lubricant Oil, and Grease to study the effect on the sedimentation rate of each fluid. Each composition is mixed with carbonyl Iron powder as well as oleic acid as surfactant and kept in a test tube for 15 Hours. It can be observed that the composition with silicone oil as the base fluid has the least sedimentation rate.
