    Electrorheological (ER) fluids are smart materials that experience an abrupt increase of viscosity when subjected to an external electric field applied perpendicular to the flow field. The reversible change in viscosity turns them suitable for applications in mechanical devices, like brakes, damping systems and clutches. Among the fluids capable of presenting ER effect are self-assembling materials, specifically the LCs. In this work the design and mesomorphic properties of a novel calamitic low molecular weight LC are presented. Small angle oscillatory shear measurements and steady state measurements were performed, in the nematic and smectic A phases, respectively, without and with an electric field applied perpendicular to the flow direction. The increase of the viscosity values was found less than three times while increasing the electric field up to 2 kV/mm. It gives evidence that this specific LC material can be potentially appropriate for application in electro-optic devices.
