POROUS METAL FOAM
- Porous Metal Foam is a unique metal material with a specific pore size and porosity. It is made from single or multiple alloys such as nickel, copper, iron, and chromium.
- The material has a low bulk density, a large specific surface area, excellent energy absorption, and high strength and rigidity.
- Its three-dimensional, open-hole structure provides exceptional corrosion resistance and is easily processed through cutting, bending, and welding.
- Porous metal foam is made of polyurethane sponge as the skeleton material, plated with metal, and finally sintered.
Main Feature
- Porous Metal Foam has a distinctive open cell structure with interconnected pores that are evenly distributed to significantly improve conductivity.
- The density of metal foam can be adjusted by varying the weight of the product, which can be manufactured with different porosity to meet the specific requirements of different application scenarios.
- The open porosity of this product is more than 98%, the pores’ size and spacing can be adjusted to meet various application requirements

Product Application
- The strength and stiffness of porous metal foams can be adjusted by changing the density, pore space or pore size, making them them useful for energy absorption.
- The material is lightweight, absorbs sound and shock effectively, has high energy absorption and electromagnetic shielding capabilities, excellent heat insulation, high temperature resistance, and is non-combustible.
- Due to its high surface area to volume ratio, the material has better thermal conductivity than any other material.
- They can also be compressed to increase surface area and flow resistance while maintaining an open-cell structure.
Be Used In A Wide Range Of Industries.
