A Nano Key To Weight Reduction
Abstract:
With the nano refinements in the process-control step, closed-cell aluminum foam gains advantages for structural applications. For example, tests by BMW demonstrate how the nanostructure-controlled process is reinventing foamed aluminum. "Our research is leading to five patents," says Gerald Hoegl, CEO, Metcomb Nanostructures, the Kleinreichenbach, Austria, innovator.
