It is an object to provide a vibration-damping alloy which has a high power of damping vibration and can be used to make components of a structure, machine, etc. and reduce effectively any vibration thereof and the noise thereby produced. The vibration-damping alloy of this invention contains those proportions of Al and Si which fall within the range defined by a series of points in any of FIGS. 1 to 6, and less than 0.1 wt. % Mn, the balance of its composition being Fe and unavoidable impurities. It preferably contains more than 0.5 wt. % Si, while not containing more than 0.01 wt. % of any of C, N, O, P and S.
A vibration-damping alloy containing not more than 0.01 wt. % C, not more than 0.01 wt. % N, not more than 0.01 wt. % O, not more than 0.01 wt. % P, not more than 0.01 wt. % S, those proportions of Al and Si which fall within the range defined in FIG. 3 by the lines connecting points A.sub.8 (Al:
A vibration-damping alloy containing not more than 0.01 wt. % C, not more than 0.01 wt. % N, not more than 0.01 wt. % O, not more than 0.01 wt. % p, not more than 0.01 wt. % S, those proportions of Al and Si which fall within the range defined in FIG. 4 by the lines connecting points A.sub.10 (Al:
A vibration-damping alloy containing not more than 0.01 wt. % C, not more than 0.01 wt. % N, not more than 0.01 wt. % O, not more than 0.01 wt. % P, not more that 0.01 wt. % S, those proportions of Al and Si which fall within the range defined in FIG. 5 by the lines connecting points A.sub.12 (Al:
A vibration-damping alloy containing not more than 0.01 wt. % C, not more than 0.01 wt. % N, not more than 0.01 wt. % O, not more than 0.01 wt. % P, not more than 0.01 wt. % S, those proportions of Al and Si which fall within the range defined in FIG. 6 by the lines connecting points A.sub.14 (Al:
