✦ Synopsis

Dynamic mechanical properties from 100 to 300°K have been determined for black cherry specimens carbonized up to 1200°K in a nitrogen atmosphere. It was found that the modulus of carbonized black cherry decreases and then begins to increase as a function of heat-treatment temperature. Modulus values appear to be at a minimum after carbonization to near 660°K. It is demonstrated that the internal friction (100 to 300°K) of the specimens after carbonization is complex.
