Producing Aluminum Foam Sandwich Panel by Melt Drag Process

Abstract

Aluminum foam is porous material and it is superior property which is light weight , absorption sound, heat insulation and energy absorption than other materials. In present the panel of aluminum foam sandwich panel to use as structural materials is adhered with adhesive or wax for adhesion. The aim of this study is to clarify producing conditions to make sandwich panel by melt drag process. Melt drag process is single roll strip casting process. Producing aluminum alloy strip and adhering foam are at a time.
