1. Espuma ultraliviana de Mg a partir de viruta reciclada
ABSTRACT Hundreds of people worldwide die or are severely maimed in collisions during traffic accidents, due to the energy transmitted to the passengers on impact. A dissipation of said energy is necessary to minimize it's effects, which can be achieved through absorbers. In recent years, metallic foams have started to be considered as energy absorbers. Meta

2. Effect of PVA and PDE on selected structural characteristics of extrusion-cooked starch foams
Abstract The aim of this work was to determine selected physical properties of biodegradable thermoplastic starch (TPS) filling foams manufactured by extrusion-cooking technique from different combinations of potato starch and two additives: poly(vinyl alcohol) PVA and Plastronfoam PDE. Foams were processed with seven starch/additives combinations at two di

3. Microwave Assisted Combustion Synthesis and Characterization of Nanocrystalline Nickel-doped Cobalt Ferrites
Abstract Nanoparticles nickel-doped cobalt ferrites [NixCo1-xFe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.0 of Ni2+)] were prepared by the microwave combustion synthesis, using a stoichiometric mixture of metal nitrates and urea as the oxidizer and fuel to drive the reaction. The effect of microwave irradiation on the phase composition was favorable to promote the

4. Mechanical properties and impact behavior of a microcellular structural foam
Structural foams are a relatively new class of materials with peculiar characteristics that make them very attractive in some energy absorption applications. They are currently used for packaging to protect goods from damage during transportation in the case of accidental impacts. Structural foams, in fact, have sufficient mechanical strength even with reduc

5. Processing and characterization of dual phase steel foam
Porous materials featuring cellular structures are known to have many interesting combinations of physical and mechanical properties. Some of them have been extensively used in the transportation field (i.e. balsa wood). Steel foams presented promising theoretical properties for both functional and structural applications in transportation, but processing of

7. Effect of polyvinyl alcohol content and after synthesis neutralization on structure, mechanical properties and cytotoxicity of sol-gel derived hybrid foams
Bioactive glass/polymer hybrids are promising materials for biomedical applications because they combine the bioactivity of these glasses with the flexibility of polymers. In this work it was evaluated the effect of increasing the PVA content of the on structural characteristics and mechanical properties of hybrid. The hybrids were prepared with 70 wt. (%) S

8. "Biodegradação de poliuretano derivado do óleo de mamona" / "Biodegradation of poliurethane derived of castor oil"
The environment requires polymers that can be completely biodegraded through the action of several environmental factors, including microorganisms. The present work studied biodegradation of polyurethane foam obtained from castor oil, a renewable natural material, constituting a viable alternative to traditional PU foams. Biodegradation was compared for cast

9. The influence of structural parameters on the permeability of ceramic foams
Ceramic foams are a new structural material, characterized by a high porosity and a large surface area and made of megapores interconnected by filaments. This results in a structure with low resistance to fluid flow, making them appropriate for use as a filter. This work studies the influence of several structural parameters, such as porosity, tortuosity, su

10. Capillarity-driven assembly of two-dimensional cellular carbon nanotube foams
Capillary forces arising during the evaporation of liquids from dense carbon nanotube arrays are used to reassemble the nanotubes into two-dimensional contiguous cellular foams. The stable nanotube foams can be elastically deformed, transferred to other substrates, or floated out to produce free-standing macroscopic fabrics. The lightweight cellular foams ma

11. Macroporous polymer foams by hydrocarbon templating
Porous polymeric media (polymer foams) are utilized in a wide range of applications, such as thermal and mechanical insulators, solid supports for catalysis, and medical devices. A process for the production of polymer foams has been developed. This process, which is applicable to a wide range of polymers, uses a hydrocarbon particulate phase as a template f
