Production of Metallic Foam Precursors Using Current‐Activated Pressure‐Assisted Densification

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A powder compaction metallurgical method, known as current‐activated pressure‐assisted densification, is applied to enhance the compaction of metal foam precursors. This method improves precursor quality by achieving higher density, lower electrical resistivity, and more uniform pore nucleation in the resulting foams, reducing energy consumption and ...
