Abstract:Various foaming agents can be used to achieve foaming of the precursors obtained by using the powder metallurgy method. However, the thermal behavior of pure aluminum precursors with different foaming agents has been studied very little in recent times. For the production of aluminum foams with closed cells, 1 wt.% of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), titanium hydride (TiH2), heat-treated TiH2 and zirconium hydride (ZrH2) were used. The foaming capability of the compacted precursors was investigated at temperatures 7… Show more
