Abstract

The vibration damping capability of bromine-intercalated graphite fibers has been reported. Continuing investigation of the use of such fibers in structural composite materials has demonstrated increased flexural damping of unidirectional, brominated P-100 graphite/epoxy composites. Damping was measured at temperatures ranging from -120 to +30 o C and at frequencies from 50 to several 100 Hz. Theoretical predictions of composite specimen modal damping ratios based on known fiber and matrix properties are in reasonable agreement with experimental data
