As a metal functional material, the Mn‐Cu based alloys are regarded to be able to cope with the vibration and noise from machines. In particular, the as‐cast alloys often exhibit an excellent damping capacity, which has been attributed to the Mn segregation in the alloys. In this paper, to amplify the kind of segregation, a trace of Sn was added in as‐cast Mn‐Cu‐Al alloys. The phase structures of the as‐cast Mn‐44Cu‐1.5Al alloys were analyzed in detail through X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The FCC/FCT distribution characteristics were observed using electron backscatter diffraction (BSE). The alloys’ dynamic mechanical spectrums and internal friction (IF) were measured using an inverted torsion pendulum device. It is found that the addition of Sn promotes the Mn segregation in the as‐cast Mn‐44Cu‐1.5Al alloys. A large amount of FCT phases appear in the dendritic trunks, enhancing the damping capacity of the alloys. In the meantime, the Sn atoms enhance the twin boundary mobility in Mn‐rich dendritic trunks. As a result, the alloy containing 1 wt. % Sn own the highest damping capacity in the alloys.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
