The above block of foam is less than an inch thick. A bullet shouldn’t have any problem punching through that, right? Wrong. Meet composite metal foams, one of the materials of the future. Metal foams ...
A new study from NC State University suggests that a lightweight “metal foam” could prevent hazardous-material tank cars from rupturing during derailments, offering a potential safety upgrade as ...
After two decades of development, a new lightweight metallic material created by North Carolina State University engineering professor Afsaneh Rabiei and her Raleigh-based company Advanced Materials ...

A new study finds that novel light-weight composite metal foams are significantly more effective at insulating against high heat than the conventional base metals and alloys that they're made of, such ...
Research from North Carolina State University shows that lightweight composite metal foams are not only effective at blocking X-rays, gamma rays, and neutron radiation, but are also capable of ...
In recent years, the use of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in thermal management systems (TMS) has garnered increased interest due to their high latent heat storage capacity, which enables effective ...
