Reseachers Concerning Stabilized Aluminium Foams Based on Silicon Carbide

Article Preview

Abstract:

To obtain SAF we have focused research on Al-Mg alloys with different concentrations of magnesium and silicon carbide (SiC). To obtain these materials has been chosen different gas blowing method (N2, SO2 and C4H10). It was observed that the best results in terms of pore volume gave blowing with C4H10. The samples obtained were analyzed by optical and electron microscopy.
