Abstract: | A lost carbonate sintering process in powder metallurgy has been used to prepare copper foam of low to medium porosities with
controlled pore size, shape, and distribution. The compressive properties of the copper foams have been investigated for different
metal volume fractions ranging from 15–100%. The elastic moduli measurements in good agreement with Mori-Tanaka predictions
for the two-phase mixtures. The microstructure, the electrical resistivity, and the thermal conductivity were also studied. |
