Open-Cell Aluminum Foam, 2–3 mm Pore Size, 100 × 100 × 5 mm, 5/10 pcs
Research-grade laboratory product
Product Overview

Open-cell aluminum foam is a lightweight porous-metal sheet formed from an aluminum-alloy cellular framework. Its interconnected pore network combines a high internal surface area with continuous open passages, making it suitable for laboratory evaluation, prototype construction and engineering projects that require a controlled porous structure.

This configuration has a 2–3 mm pore-size range, a finished sheet size of 100 × 100 mm and a nominal thickness of 5 mm. Typical porosity is 70–90%. The typical open-cell rate is 55–65%. These parameters help users compare passage geometry, surface-contact behavior and integration requirements.

The open structure can support heat-transfer and heat-dissipation studies, gas or liquid filtration assemblies, acoustic-control experiments, light-transmitting structures and other applications where a rigid metallic porous medium is required. The aluminum framework also makes the sheet convenient for integration into test fixtures, layered assemblies, prototype housings and cut-to-fit research components.

Before ordering, confirm the required pore-size range, sheet length and width, thickness, package quantity and intended operating environment. Dimensional customization can be discussed when the standard 100 × 100 mm format does not match the planned installation, prototype or experimental setup.

Application Scope

Suitable for porous-metal research, heat-transfer and heat-dissipation studies, gas or liquid filtration assemblies, acoustic-control experiments, light-transmitting structures and laboratory fixtures that require a rigid, interconnected open-cell medium. The sheet can also be evaluated as a flow-distribution layer, porous support, structural insert or cut-to-fit component in research and engineering assemblies.

SELECTION GUIDANCE: Confirm the pore-size range, porosity requirement, cell structure, sheet length and width, thickness and required quantity before quotation. The intended medium, mounting method and surrounding operating conditions should also be considered when matching the material to an experimental or engineering setup.
HANDLING & INSPECTION: Store the sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing and contamination. After delivery, check the package condition, sheet dimensions and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding or installing the material.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Custom dimensions are available upon consultation. For a dimensional feasibility review, provide the target length, width, thickness, pore-size range and estimated quantity.

Store the aluminum foam sheets in a clean, dry environment to prevent moisture contamination and mechanical damage. Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and pore structure before any cutting, bonding, or installation procedures.

  • Storage Environment: Store the sheets in a clean, dry area to avoid moisture-related degradation.
  • Mechanical Protection: Protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination to maintain structural integrity.
  • Pre-Use Inspection: Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing.

Unpack and inspect the aluminum foam sheets upon delivery to ensure they meet specifications. Store the sheets in a clean, dry area until use, and protect them from mechanical damage.

Required Equipment:

  1. Store
    Store the sheets in a clean, dry area to prevent moisture contamination and mechanical damage.
  2. Protect
    Protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination during handling and storage.
  3. Inspect
    Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing the material.

What is the typical open-cell rate and porosity of the Atomfair AF-O23-10-T05 aluminum foam sheet?

The typical porosity is 70–90%, and the typical open-cell rate is 55–65%. These parameters, combined with the 2–3 mm pore size and interconnected open-pore network, define the passage geometry and surface-contact behavior for heat-transfer, filtration, or acoustic-control experiments.

Can the 100 × 100 × 5 mm open-cell aluminum foam sheet be customized to different dimensions?

Yes, custom dimensions are available upon consultation. For a dimensional feasibility review, provide the target length, width, thickness, pore-size range, and estimated quantity. The standard sheet size is 100 × 100 × 5 mm, but the manufacturer can discuss modifications when the standard format does not match the planned setup.

What handling and storage precautions are recommended for the Atomfair open-cell aluminum foam sheets?

Store the sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination. After delivery, inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing the material to preserve the interconnected open-pore network and structural integrity.

This open-cell aluminum foam sheet (100×100×5 mm, 2–3 mm pore size) provides a rigid, interconnected porous structure with 70–90% porosity and 55–65% open-cell rate, suitable for heat transfer, filtration, acoustic, and light-transmission experiments in laboratory settings.

Positive

  • Interconnected open-pore network: Continuous passages through the metallic cellular structure enable airflow, fluid flow, and light transmission, supporting multifunctional lab applications.
  • Lightweight aluminum-alloy framework: The rigid porous medium is easy to integrate into test fixtures, layered assemblies, and cut-to-fit components without adding significant mass.

Trade-offs

  • Sensitive to impact and contamination: The cellular surface must be stored in a clean, dry area and protected from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination to preserve structural integrity.
  • Limited open-cell rate: With a typical open-cell rate of 55–65%, a portion of the pore volume may be closed, potentially reducing effective flow passage area in filtration or heat-transfer studies.
