Open-Cell Aluminum Foam, 2–3 mm Pore Size, 100 × 200 × 6 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 × 200 mm and a nominal thickness of 6 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 × 200 mm format does not match the planned installation, prototype or experimental setup.

  • Interconnected pores provide continuous passages through the metallic cellular structure.
  • The open geometry supports airflow, fluid passage and light transmission through the sheet.
  • A lightweight aluminum-alloy framework provides a rigid porous medium for laboratory integration.
  • 70–90% (typical) porosity and 55–65% (typical) open-cell rate.
  • Available in 5-piece and 10-piece package quantities.
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.

This open-cell aluminum foam sheet must be stored in a clean, dry environment to avoid contamination and structural damage. The cellular surface requires protection from impact, crushing, and contamination during handling and installation.

  • Storage Conditions: Store the sheets in a clean, dry area to prevent moisture and contamination.
  • Impact Protection: Protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination.
  • Inspection: Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing.
  • Operating Environment: Consider the intended operating environment, mounting method, and surrounding conditions when selecting the material.

What is the difference between the 70–90% porosity and the 55–65% open-cell rate for this Atomfair aluminum foam sheet?

Porosity (70–90% typical) refers to the total void fraction within the foamed aluminum alloy, including both open and closed pores, while the open-cell rate (55–65% typical) specifically indicates the proportion of interconnected, through-connected pores that permit fluid or light passage. For applications requiring continuous flow, such as filtration or heat dissipation, the open-cell rate is the more critical parameter, as it defines the effective permeable volume.

Can this 100 × 200 × 6 mm open-cell aluminum foam sheet be cut to custom dimensions without compromising its structural integrity?

Yes, the sheet is designed as a cut-to-fit research component, and custom dimensions are available upon consultation. However, because the material is a rigid, lightweight aluminum-alloy cellular framework with a 2–3 mm pore size, cutting may expose open edges and reduce local mechanical strength. It is recommended to use clean cutting methods (e.g., fine saw or wire EDM) and to protect the cut surfaces from crushing or deformation during handling, as the cellular structure is sensitive to heavy impact.

What storage and handling conditions are required to maintain the performance of this open-cell aluminum foam sheet?

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 open-pore network is translucent and light-transmitting, so avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals or environments that could corrode the aluminum alloy, unless the intended operating environment has been pre-validated.

This variable listing covers 5- and 10-piece packages of the Atomfair AF-O23-12-T06 open-cell aluminum foam sheet in a 100 × 200 × 6 mm format with 2–3 mm pores. The interconnected metallic porous structure supports heat-transfer, filtration, acoustic and light-transmission studies, but effective open-cell content and handling sensitivity should be considered in test-fixture design.

Positive

  • Interconnected open-pore network with high porosity: The 2–3 mm interconnected pore network with typical 70–90% porosity provides continuous passages for airflow, fluid passage and light transmission, supporting heat-transfer, filtration, acoustic and light-transmitting test assemblies.
  • Lightweight rigid aluminum alloy cellular sheet: The 100 × 200 × 6 mm aluminum-alloy sheet is lightweight yet rigid, and can be integrated into test fixtures, layered assemblies, prototype housings or cut-to-fit research components.

Trade-offs

  • Impact and contamination sensitive cellular surface: The handling guidance requires clean, dry storage and protection from heavy impact, crushing and contamination, so careful incoming inspection and handling are necessary before cutting, bonding or installation.
  • Open-cell rate below total porosity: The stated typical open-cell rate of 55–65% indicates that not all cells in the network are open, so effective through-flow and light-transmission performance should be confirmed for the specific application.
