Closed-Cell Powder Metallurgical Aluminium Foams Reinforced with 3 vol.% SiC and 3 vol.% Graphite

Closed-cell aluminium foams (nominal composition: AlSi12Mg0.6Fe0.3) were prepared by the powder metallurgical route (using 0.4 wt.% TiH<sub>2</sub> untreated powder as the foaming agent). Pure foams and foams with the addition of 3 vol.% graphite or SiC powder were prepared. The microstr...
