TITLE
VIBRATION DAMPERS
FIELD OF THE I NVENTION
This invention relates to epoxy resin based
vibration dampers and more particularly to vibration
dampers excellent in vibration damping capacity as well as
in mechanical strength.
BACKGROUND OF THE INV~NTION
In order that vibration from a source of vibration
will not be transfe~red to other portions, it has been
widely practiced to allow an antivibration rubber or air
spring to stand at the contacting surface between the
source of vibration and other portions. In these
procedures, however, no attenuation of the vibration
~; itself of the source of vibration can be expected, even
though the transfer of the vibration can be inhlbited.
: ~ ~
On that account, there has been adopted a
procedure wherein a vibration damper is allowed to adhere
to a vibrating body so as to attenuate the vibration
itself of the vibrating body. In the case of using such a
vibration damper, attenuation o$ the vibration is aimed at
by converting vibrational energy into heat.
~ In inhibiting vibration of a vibrating body using
': ~: ~ :
:

1296f.~. 4
-- 2 --
a vibration damper, when amplitudes of adjacent vibrations
in an attenuation sine wave are taken as X1 and X2,
respectively, there is obtained an excellent vibration
inhibitory effect if a logarithmic decrement represented
by the following equation (1) becomes larger.
~S = ln(Xl/X2) ...(1)
The logarithmic decrement ~ itself is represented
by the following equation (2), using dissipation factor 7.
~ = ni~ --(2)
Accordingly, it can be said that a vibration
damper having a larger dissipation factor ~ has excellent
characteristics.
In using such a vibration da~per in practice,
there are a case wherein the vibration damper is used by
simply pasting it on a source of vibration (non-constraint
type) and a case wherein the vibration da~per is used by
inserting it between a~source of vibration and a
constraint plate (constraint type).
In the constraint type vibration damper wh.ich is
used by inserting it between the vibrating body and the
constraint plate, a dissipation factor~is represented

~364~4
approximately by the following equation (3).
E3 h3 ~ h31
E1 h3 ~ h1 /
~2 (3)
1 + 2g + ( 1+ 2 )g2
wherein El is Young's modulus of the vibrating body and E3
is Young's modulus of the constraint plate, hl is a
thickness of the vibrating body and h3 is a thickness of
the constraint plate, h3l is equal to h2 ~ (hl ~ h3)/2, h2
is a thickness of the vibration damper, 2 is dissipation
factor of the vibration damper itself, g is a share
parameter represented by the followiny equations (4) and
(5).

G2 h1 / El
fs 1 ... (5)
47jE3h3h2 ~ 3p 1
wherein G2 is a modulus of rigidity of the vibration
damper and p1 is a density of t.he vibrating body.
It is understood from the above-mentioned

iZ96~s74 ` `
equations that preferable as the vibration dampers are
those having a large dissipation factor ~2 and a small
modulus of rigidity.
The vibration dampers are required to have
excellent moldability, mechanical strength, water
resistance and chemical resistance in addition to the
above-mentioned vibration damping capacity and, moreover,
to be usable even under the circumstances of high
temperature and high vacuum.
As vibration damping compositions used for forming
such vibration dampers as mentioned above, there have
heretofore been used polyamide type resins, polyvinyl
chloride type resins or resins consisting essentially of
epoxy resins.
However, vibration dampers formed from the
vibration damping compositions comprising polyamide type
resins as their principal components had such problems
that the conditions under which the vibration dampers are
used are limited since they are poor in water resistance
as well as in chemical resistance and, moreover, they are
low in mechanical strength. The vibration dampin~
compositions consisting essentially of polyvinyl chloride
type resins had such problems that they are difficult to
be formed into vibration dampers having complicated shapes
and further that the production of vibration dampers of

~29~
-- 5 --
many species but in small quantity requires a high cost of
production. Vibration dampers formed from the vibration
damping compositions consisting essentially of epoxy type
resins had such problems that when the vibration dampers
high in mechanical strength and excellent in service
durability as well as in moldability are intended to
obtain, the vibration dampers obtained are found poor in
vibration damping capacity and, on one hand, when the
vibration dampers excellent in vibration damping capacity
are intended to obtain, the vibration dampers obtained are
found low in mechanical strength and poor in service
durability as well as moldability.
OBJECT OF THX INVENTION
The present invention is intended to solve such
problems associated with the prior art as mentioned above,
and an object oP the invention is to provide vibration
dampers having excellent vibration damping capacity and
being excellent in mechanical strength, service durabil.ity
and moldability.

The present invention is illustrated below with
reference to examples, but it should be construed that the
invention is in no way limited to those examples.
~xample 1
-
To lO0 g of 1,6-hexanediol diglycidyl ether having
epoxy equivalent 150 g/equivalent was added 100 g of a
curing agent obtained by adding 1 part by weight of 2,4,6-
tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol to 100 parts by weight of
4-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, followed by
thorough mixing at room temperature. There was prepared a
vibration damping composition.
Thè thus obtained vibration damping composition
was cured under the curing conditions of 120C x 3 hr, and
a vibration damper obtained thereby was measured in the
following manner for dissipation factor r~, volatile
component, tensile strength at rupture, tensional
elongation at rupture, elastic modulus in tension ,
compression strength, Izod impact strength and resistance
to chipping on bending.
Methods of measurement employed are as follows:

Seisakusho K.K.
Temperature: -50 to 200C; sample, 2 mm width x

Frequency: 400 Hz
Method of measurement and Principle: In the case
where one end of a sample is fixed and the other end is
intended to vibrate in the lengthwise direction o~ the
sample, no measurement can be conducted in the direction
toward which the sample shrinks because the sample sags.
Therefore, at the outset, the sample is stretched to a
given extent, and the measurement is conducted while
applying dynamic displacement centering around the
stretched point of the sample. This stretch given at the
outset is called an initial strain (Ls) and a tension
produced when the initial strain is given is called an
~nitial tension (Fs).
When an amplitude ~Eo p) f the dynamic
displacement becomes larger than the initial strain, the
sample sags and the measurement comes to become
inoperable, and hence thi~ should be brought to attention
at the time when the mea~urement i9 conducted.

(Method of measuring volatile component)
In accordance with the procedure as stipulated in
ASTM E595-77, there were obtained TML (Total Mass Loss) at
125C x 10 torr x 24 hours and CVCM (Collected Volatile
Condensable Materials).
(Method of measuring tensile strength at rupture, tensile
elongation at rupture and elastic modulus in tension)
The measurement was conducted in accordance with
JIS K~113 at a temperature of 25 + 0.2 C and a rate of
pulling of 10 mm/min, using No. 2 specimen.
(Method of measuring compression strength)
The measurement was conducted in accordance with
JIS K69111-5.19.1 at a temperature of 25 + 0.2C and a
rate of compressing of 1 mm/min.
(Method of measuring Izod impact strength)
The measurement was conducted in accordance with
JIS K6911-5.21 at a temperature of 25 ~ 0.2 C.
(Method of measuring resistance to chipping on bending)
The resistance to chipping on bending was
determined by bending a square column of the sample, 1/2 x

12~k~
1/2 x 5 inches, until the angles of both ends of the
sample becomes 90 to examine occurrence of fracture.
When no fructure occurred, the tested sample was
determined to come up to standard.
Vibration damping capacity of a vibration damper
when it was assembled as a constraint type vibration
damper to a vibrating body was measured by the following
procedure. That is, a sample of the constraint type
vibration damper of a sandwich structure was prepared by
fitting to an aluminum vibrating plate of 300 mm length,
30 mm width and 5 mm thick a vibration damper of 3 mm
thick having the same area as in the vibrating plate and
an aluminum constraint plate of 2 mm thick having the same
area as in the vibrating plate, and ~ of the constraint
type vibration damper thus prepared was measured at a
vibration frequency of 400 Hz. The maximum value of
obtained was taken as ~s

Example 20
~ xample 15 was repeated except that in place of
the curing agent used in Example 15, there was used 140 g
of a curing agent obtained by adding 1 part by weight of
2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol to 100 parts by
weight of dodecenylsuccinic anhydride.
The results obtained are shown in Table 5
Example 21
~ xample 20 was repeated except that in place of
the eposy resin used in Example 20, there was used a
mixture of 50 g of dipropylene glycol diglycidyl ether and
50 g of tripropylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and the
amount of the curing agent used was changed to 136 g.
The results obtained are shown in Table 5.
Example 22
Example 21 was repeated except that the amount of
the curing agent u~ed was changed to 106 g.
The results obtained are shown in Table 5.
Examples 23-24
The present examples illustrate the use of curing
agents other than acid anhydrides. ~xamples 16 was

Examples 25-29
Example 15 was repeated except that in place of
the condensate of xylene and formaldehyde used as the
compound (c) in Example 15, there were used other
compounds, respectively, as shown in Table 7.
The results obtained are shown in Table 7.

Comparative Example 1
The present example shows an instance wherein the
use of the compound (c) was omitted. Example 15 was
repeated except that the condensate of xylene and
formaldehyde was not used.
The results obtained are shown in Table ~.
Comparative Example 2
The present example demonstrates that a vibration
damper obtained by the use as the compound (c) of a
compound other than those specifically defined in the
present invention is found poor in vibration damping.
capacity.
~ xample 13 was repeated except that in place of
the condensate of xylene and formaldehyde used in Example
13, there was used dioctyl phthalate.
The results obtained are shown in Table 8.
It is understood from this example that a
vibration damper obtained in the example is rather
inferior in vibration damping capacity to the vibration
damper obtained in Comparative Example 1 by using no
compound (c).
