Fabrication of foams of A2024 and A7075 and influence of porosity and heat treatment on their mechanical properties

Aluminum alloy foams were fabricated through the melt route using aircraft grade aluminum alloy, the compositions of which were equivalent to A2024 and A7075. It became possible to fabricate aluminum foam by the thickening effect of Al-Cu melt caused by adding Zn and Mg. Porosity increased as the Ti...
