Patent abstract

A method for making a damper component for absorbing and dissipating vibration and/or noise resonation is provided. The method features heating a laminate including a viscoelastomer-containing damper layer and an adjacent melt-flowable, curable sheet molding compound. Heating is conducted under pressure in a mold to cure the sheet molding compound to form a continuous constraining layer that intimately contacts and encases the damper layer.
