POROUS METAL FOAM BODY

摘要

Metal foam body obtainable by applying one or more layers of molten metal to an open-cell nonmetallic substrate and the molten metal penetrating into the open cells of the nonmetallic substrate to form a metal foam body, the metallic component of which has at least partially penetrated into the open- cell nonmetallic substrate. The open-cell metal foam body is produced by a method in which an open-cell nonmetallic substrate is prepared and provided with a molten metal and the molten metal penetrates into the open cells of the open-cell nonmetallic substrate. The metal foam bodies can be used in many areas of technology.
