Preparation and Properties of Closed Cell Aluminum–Fly Ash Floating Beads Composite Foam

Article Preview

Abstract:

Closed cell aluminum–fly ash floating beads composite foam was fabricated by stirring casting method. The reasonable processing parameters are: the foaming temperature is 750°C, the amount of foaming agent is 2%, and the foaming time is 8 min. Quasi-static compression tests shows that stress and strain curve of closed cell aluminum–fly ash floating beads composite foam have three regions, i.e. the elastic region, the stress platform region and the compression region.
