Abstract

The well distributed open cellular porous copper was fabricated by present powder metallurgy technique based on space holder method, Depending on the volume fraction and size of the space holding particle, the porosity can be varied in the wide range of 30–85% and pore size from micron to millimetre in magnitude of order respectively. The damping behaviour and related relative dynamic modulus of the porous copper were investigated by a multifunction internal friction apparatus as a function of temperature from room temperature to 600°C. The results of investigation disclose that the porous copper can obtain a higher damping capacity than that of bulk one. In addition to this, an internal friction peak was found in the spectra of internal friction against temperature for the porous copper, it was proposed that the viscous sliding of the grain boundaries should be responsible for the appearance of the peak, and the dependence of the peak on porosity can be understood in terms of the anelastic relaxation mode of grain boundary.
