The stability under dynamic mechanical solicitation and with the temperature of the elastomagnetic composite made of Sm2Co7 particles embedded in a silicone matrix is investigated. The thermal stability was examined by DSC measurements. The thermal (up to congruent to 340 degrees C) and mechanical ageing effects on the material elastomagnetic response were investigated by measuring the amplitude, V-0, of the electromotive force induced in a pick-up coil during the dynamic mechanical solicitation of the sample. It was found that for the whole investigation range of temperatures, the V, dependence on the frequency, v, and amplitude, D, of the externally induced deformation is linear and its amplitude is not changing for treatments up to 150 degrees C; for higher temperature treatments the response amplitude is decreasing. The analysis of the response signal (registered at 1 h intervals) after dynamic mechanical solicitation carried out during 48 h, shows the excellent output reliability and no decrease in amplitude with time.
