Effect of heat treatment on stiffness and damping of Sic/Ti-15-3The effect of heat treatment on material properties of Sic/Ti-15-3 was measured by vibration tests. Heat treatment changes the microstructure, which stiffens the matrix and reduces its damping capacity. Test results illustrate how the changes in matrix material affect the stiffness and damping properties of the composite. Damping was found to be more sensitive than stiffness to microstructural changes in the matrix. Effects of heat treatment temperature and exposure time are presented.
