A metal foam object results from the mixing of a gasifier with metal powder and subjecting the mixture to an elevated temperature T1 and pressure P1 to form a sintered sheet placing at least a portion of the sintered sheet into a mold and subjecting the mold to a temperature T2 where T2 is greater than T1 at which the metal melts and the gas is released from the gasifier and quenching the metal foam object thus formed in the mold. The quenching is carried out by applying a cryogen to the object as a high velocity mixture of gas and liquid droplets.
