PROCESSING-PROPERTY RELATIONSHIPS OF AS-CAST MAGNESIUM FOAMS WITH CONTROLLABLE ARCHITECTURE

An inverse template method that relies on the use of a controlled porous spacer material was implemented to produce periodic magnesium (Mg) foams. Bulk infiltration pressures were varied to determine a processing-property map. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the resulting periodic Mg foams were investigated using optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and compression testing, respectively. SEM was also used to analyze the surface topology of the periodic foams and compare it to the original template material. It was found that the casting pressure has a great effect not only on the success of the infiltration but also the surface roughness and other microstructural features of the foam.
