Hybrid metamaterial with auxetic cellular structure and silicon filler was manufactured and
mechanically tested for the first time with aim to study its enhanced mechanical properties …

Multifunctional hybrid foams were developed and tested by combining aluminium alloy open-
cell (OC) foam specimens with polymers, epoxy resin and silicone rubber. The rectangular …

The polymeric microporous foams with multi-layer cell structure is prepared via the
combination of multi-layer hot melt pressing and supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO 2) …

Composite materials exhibit the impressive mechanical properties of high damping and
stiffness, which cannot be attained by employing conventional single materials. Along these …

Thermoplastic poly (ether/ester) elastomer (TPEE) has great potential as a mattress material
due to its high resilience, breathability, and light weight. This study aimed to evaluate the …

Glass-fiber-reinforced polyurethane foams, one of the most widely used insulation materials
in liquefied-natural-gas cargo-containment systems, is generally blown by various blowing …

Abstract In this study, Mg 17 Al 12/Al ordered structure composites were prepared by
infiltrating the ordered porous aluminum with the intermetallic compound Mg 17 Al 12 under …

The lattice structure is a periodically repeating three-dimensional open-cell architecture, and
the introduction of polymer materials into its gaps results in a lattice structure filled with …

This article reports on the fabrication and characterisation of hybrid structures prepared by
impregnating an open-cell aluminum foam with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) or PDMS …

Closed cell aluminum foam (AF) has extensive application prospects due to its extended
plateau stress region and high energy absorption capacity. As one of the most important …
