Magnesium matrix composites reinforced by graphite particles were fabricated using stir casting with graphite particle size of 50 mu m and graphite particle volume fractions of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%, respectively. A dynamic mechanical analyzer was used to measure the damping capacities of as-cast composites. The experimental results reveal that the graphite particles play an important role on the damping capacities of as-cast composites. The strain amplitude independent damping of as-cast composites increases significantly as the graphite particle volume fraction increases from 0% to 15%, but decreases when the volume fraction exceeds 15%. The damping values of as-cast composites rise slowly with increasing temperature from room temperature to 125 degrees C, and have no obvious change with increasing temperature from 125 degrees C to 250 degrees C, but rise rapidly with increasing temperature from 250 degrees C to 400 degrees C.
