Innovation in Metalworking: Welding Metal Foam Without Melting Its Bubbles

Posted by in category: innovation

North Carolina State University researchers have discovered a new welding method for composite metal foam (CMF), preserving its light, strong, and thermally insulating properties, vital for numerous applications.

Researchers at North Carolina State University have now identified a welding technique that can be used to join composite metal foam (CMF) components together without impairing the properties that make CMF desirable. CMFs hold promise for a wide array of applications because the pockets of air they contain make them light, strong and effective at insulating against high temperatures.

Characteristics and Challenges of CMF.
