that would be oobleck, what I am needing is a liquid that changes viscosity when in the presence of an electrical field, the actual name for it is electrorheological fluid, whereas oobleck is just considered a smart fluid due to it changing viscosity based on stress. there is also magnetorheological fluid and i'll let you guess what makes that one change viscosity
yeah pretty neat stuff, gonna be expensive to test my theory though. I did find one place where one could order a liter of the stuff for like 800 US, but I don't need that much. I think they might have had smaller amounts as well.
