METAL MATRIX MATERIAL BASED ON SHAPE-MEMORY ALLOY POWDERS, PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF AND USE OF SAME

摘要

Abstract: The invention relates to a metal matrix material based on shape-memory alloy powders, to the production method thereof and to the use of same. More specifically, the invention relates to a metal matrix material which is characterised in that it is based on particles of shape-memory alloy powder, having a base of copper at a concentration of between 45 vol.- % and 70 vol.-% in relation to the total volume of the material, said powder particles being supported by a metal matrix. The invention also relates to a method of producing the aforementioned material and to the use of same for absorbing vibrations, particularly acoustic and mechanical vibrations.
