Abstract:Metal foams and alloy foams are a novel class of engineering materials and have numerous applications because of their properties such as high energy absorption, light weight and high compressive strength. In the present study, the methodology adopted to develop a Ni-Cr alloy foam is discussed. Polyurethane (PU) foam of 40PPI (parts per inch) pore density was used as the precursor and coating techniques such as electroless nickel plating (ELN), ultrasonic-assisted electroplating of nickel (UAEPN), and pack cem… Show more
