Commercial Applications of Metal Foams: Their Properties and Production
This work gives an overview of the production, properties and industrial applications of metal foams. First, it classifies the most relevant manufacturing routes and methods. Then, it reviews the most important properties, with special interest in the mechanical and functional aspects, but also taking into account costs and feasibility considerations. These properties are the motivation and bas...
متن کاملAmorphous metal foams
As recently demonstrated, amorphous metal foams are highly ductile in compression, and thus offer attractive compromises in mechanical and physical properties between crystalline metallic and ceramic foams. Challenges associated with fabrication of amorphous metal foams are critically assessed in the context of current and future processing methods, and conclusions are drawn regarding the prope...
متن کاملUltralight metal foams
Ultralight (<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 limit their large-scale production and practical applicati...
متن کاملComposite and Nanocomposite Metal Foams
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. This manuscript provides an updated overview of the different manu...
متن کاملLARGE-AREA CdTe PIXEL DETECTORS FOR HIGH-ENERGY X-RAY DIFFRACTION APPLICATIONS
Already a while ago researchers in pharmaceutical science have recognized hard X-rays as an useful analytical tool. Computed tomography techniques (CT) were utilized to investigate porosity and morphology of granules [1] and density variations within tablets [2]; real-time X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) techniques revealed reaction mechanisms and metastable phases of pharmaceutical cocrystals ...
