“…In the past few decades, a lot of researchers have been trying to create new materials with higher chemical purity and enhanced properties compared with the conventional quality of metal filters. 12,13 Two examples worth mentioning are LigaFill Ò -foams made of siliconized silicon carbide with nearly dense ceramic struts 14,15 and an extremely higher strength than conventional foam materials ( Fig. 1) as well as pure sintered silicon carbide (SSiC) foams with one of the highest thermal stabilities among the suitable materials for burners.…”

A new technol. to coat open-celled foams homogeneously by using a vertical centrifuge and shear-thinning slurries is presented. The technol. is exemplified by a complex multilayer-coated foam for catalytic applications (Fig. 3). Furthermore, a new calcn. model for the estn. of coating thickness and for quality assessment is introduced and proved by comparing the calcd. and exptl. data. Based on these results, various material combinations are shown, e.g., layers made of rough particles, zeolites, activated carbon, γ-Al2O3, perovskites, mullite, and yttria-alumina-garnet on SiC-, Al2O3-, or cordierite foams. Theses "functionalized foams" can be used for a wide variety of practical applications, e.g., as adsorbents and catalysts in environmental engineering, as preforms for metal ma trix composites, and for special purpose applications that require corrosion and oxidn. resistance
