Composite and Nanocomposite Metal Foams [PDF]
Materials, 2016 Open-cell and closed-cell metal foams have been reinforced with different kinds of micro- and nano-sized reinforcements to enhance their mechanical properties of the metallic matrix. The idea behind this is that the reinforcement will strengthen the matrix of the cell edges and cell walls and provide high strength and stiffness.

Study on the effect of the size irregularity gradient of metal foams on macroscopic compressive properties [PDF]
Heliyon, 2022 Size irregularity gradient and cell wall gradient, combined as the density gradient in previous studies, affect the macroscopic mechanical properties of the gradient metal foam. More and more complex mesostructures are designed and applied in metal foams,

Sci Rep, 2015 AbstractUltralight (<10 mg/cm3) cellular materials are desirable for thermal insulation; battery electrodes; catalyst supports; and acoustic, vibration, or shock energy damping. However, most of these ultralight materials, especially ultralight metal foams, are fabricated using either expensive materials or complicated procedures, which greatly ...

Experimental Study on Capillary Microflows in High Porosity Open-Cell Metal Foams [PDF]
Micromachines, 2022 Metal foams have been widely used in heat pipes as wicking materials. The main issue with metal foams is the surface property capillary limit. In this paper, a chemical blackening process for creating a superhydrophilic surface on copper foams is studied

The effect of unintended porosity on the first compressive stress maximum of alumina hollow sphere-filled bimodal composite metal foams [PDF]
HeliyonBimodal composite metal foams made from Al99.5 aluminium and quasi-eutectic Sr-modified AlSi12 matrix were investigated, where the bimodality was introduced by two alumina hollow sphere sets with nominal diameters of Ø7.0 and Ø2.4 mm in various volume ...

Morphology of metallic foams and their application in the wastewater treatment process [PDF]
Bakar, 2023 Metal foam is a cellular structure composed of solid metal with a high proportion of gas-filled pores. The main division of metal foams is into foams with the open and closed cells, on which the area of their application mostly depends.
