The history of metallic foams and the key innovations that have led to the variety of
processing methods known today are reviewed. It is evident that the idea of foaming metals …

Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are attractive for a wide variety of structural and functional
applications owing to excellent specific strength, toughness and stiffness, and corrosion …

The complex flow of liquid metal in evolving metallic foams is still poorly understood due to
difficulties in studying hot and opaque systems. We apply X-ray tomoscopy–the continuous …

Abstract Advanced Ti materials include Ti, Ti alloys and Ti-matrix composites with significant
advantages of higher performance, lower cost, and wider applications relative to their …

Hydrogen has been investigated for decades as a temporary alloying element to refine the
microstructure of Ti–6Al–4V, and is now being used in a novel powder metallurgy method …

The challenges of micro-pores resistant to closure and significant ductility loss during the
pressureless sintering of titanium (Ti) alloy powder mixtures have been overcome through …

Titanium metal matrix composite microlattices are fabricated using 3D ink extrusion printing
and sintering. The inks consist of TiH 2+ TiB 2 or TiH 2+ TiC powder blends to form (i) Ti-TiB …

In the melt foaming process of aluminium foams, small pore size aluminium foam is difficult
to fabricate, this is mainly due to the early decomposition and poor dispersion of foaming …

Thermal desorption behaviors of titanium hydride powders were studied using simultaneous
TG-TDS accompanied with TG-DSC measurements at the heating rate of 1.5, 2.5, 5, 10, 15 …

Closed-cell aluminum foams have many excellent properties, such as low density, high
specific strength, great energy absorption, good sound absorption, electromagnetic …
