Abstract Magnetic fluid (MF) seals have typically been used under various vacuum and gaseous low-pressure conditions. However, there are only a few cases in which MF seals can be used in a liquid environment. To promote this concept, a series of experimental tests was run in order to study the loading process among MF seals, as well as their self-repairing performance in aqueous environments. Exploring these factors has extended our knowledge of the sealing mechanisms in liquid environments. The results show that MF seals have enhanced self-repairing abilities in aqueous environments.
