Static and impact responses of syntactic foam composites reinforced by multi-walled carbon nanotubes
Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2020 The incorporation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into syntactic foams (hollow glass microspheres bonded to a polymer matrix) can enhance the mechanical performance of syntactic foams.

Hydrostatic strength of hollow glass microspheres composites: Influencing factors and modelling
Composites Part C: Open Access, 2022 This study deals with the hydrostatic strength of hollow glass microspheres composites, commonly known as syntactic foams, using model materials made of 0.15 g/cm3 microspheres with 3 types of matrix, two epoxies and one paraffin.

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023 For a long time, the extremely high chemical activity of magnesium melt with ceramics at high temperatures makes it challenging to synthesize Mg-matrix syntactic foams (MgSFs) by casting. In this work, for the first time, high porosity of AZ31B magnesium

Functionally-Graded Metallic Syntactic Foams Produced via Particle Pre-Compaction
Metals, 2020 This paper introduces a novel functionally graded metallic syntactic foam. The investigated foams are manufactured while using infiltration casting where molten A356 aluminum flows into the interstitial voids of packed expanded perlite (EP) particle beds.

Water Impact of Syntactic Foams [PDF]
Materials, 2017 Syntactic foams are particulate composite materials that are extensively integrated in naval and aerospace structures as core materials for sandwich panels. While several studies have demonstrated the potential of syntactic foams as energy absorbing materials in impact tests, our understanding of their response to water impact remains elusive.

X-ray microtomographic characterization and quantification of the strain rate dependent failure mechanism in cenosphere epoxy syntactic foams [PDF]
, 2016 This work investigates the failure mechanism in cenosphere epoxy syntactic foams at the quasi-static and dynamic strain rates. Split-Hopkinson pressure bar experiments are controlled to stop dynamic deformation of the foams at various strain stages.

The spheroplastics destruction mechanisms under hydrostatic compression [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 This paper is devoted to hydrostatic compression testing of glass microspheres and spheroplastics (syntactic foam) based on them. Despite a significant share of the void, for example, with a volume fraction of glass microspheres in the syntactic foam of ...
