Abstract
Eutectic Sn-Bi and In-Sn solders possess much higher damping capacities than Sn-Ag-Cu solders at temperatures above room temperature. The strain amplitude dependence of damping capacities in Sn-Bi solder determined at room temperature is comparable to that of Mg alloys measured at the same temperature. Sn-Bi and In-Sn solders both exhibit conspicuous high-temperature damping backgrounds, with activation energies of 0.77 and 0.27 eV, respectively. © 2010 Acta Materialia Inc.
