Open-Cell Aluminum Foam, 2–3 mm Pore Size, 100 × 100 × 3–4 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 3–4 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 sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination. Confirm the pore-size range, porosity, sheet dimensions, and intended operating conditions before cutting, bonding, or installing the material.

  • Storage Environment: Store the sheets in a clean, dry area with protection from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination.
  • Post-Delivery Inspection: After delivery, check the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting or installing the material.
  • Selection Verification: Confirm the pore-size range, porosity, sheet dimensions, and intended operating conditions before quotation and use.
  • Handling Precautions: Protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination during handling and storage.
  • Processing Compatibility: Consider the intended medium, mounting method, and surrounding operating conditions when integrating the foam into an assembly.

Inspect and store the aluminum foam sheets immediately after delivery to maintain their structural integrity. Before cutting, bonding, or installing, verify the dimensions and pore structure to ensure compatibility with the intended application.

  1. Inspect the Delivery
    Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure immediately after delivery.
  2. Store Properly
    Store the sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination.
  3. Verify Before Use
    Verify the pore-size range, porosity, sheet dimensions, and intended mounting conditions before cutting, bonding, or installing the material.

What are the typical porosity and open-cell rate of the Atomfair open-cell aluminum foam sheet, and how do they influence its suitability for heat dissipation and filtration applications?

The foam has a typical porosity of 70–90% and an open-cell rate of 55–65%, providing an interconnected pore network with continuous passages. This high porosity supports fluid and air flow, making it suitable for heat-transfer and heat-dissipation studies as well as gas or liquid filtration assemblies. The open-cell structure also enables light transmission and acoustic control.

Can the 100×100×3–4 mm aluminum foam sheet be customized to different dimensions for integration into specific laboratory fixtures?

Yes, custom dimensions are available upon consultation. The product page states that dimensional customization can be discussed when the standard 100×100 mm format does not match the planned installation. For a dimensional feasibility review, provide the target length, width, thickness, pore-size range, and estimated quantity.

What handling and storage precautions should be observed when working with the open-cell aluminum foam sheets to prevent damage?

The sheets should be stored in a clean, dry area and protected 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. This ensures the integrity of the open-cell structure and reliable performance in experimental setups.

This open-cell aluminum foam sheet (2–3 mm pore size, 100×100×3–4 mm) offers an interconnected porous network with 70–90% porosity, suitable for heat transfer, filtration, and acoustic studies. Its lightweight aluminum alloy requires careful handling and dry storage to avoid mechanical damage and contamination.

Positive

  • Interconnected open-pore network: The interconnected open-cell structure provides continuous passages for gas or liquid flow, enabling heat transfer, filtration, and acoustic control experiments.
  • High porosity and light transmission: With typical porosity of 70–90% and open-cell rate of 55–65%, the sheet offers a high internal surface area and translucent properties, supporting light-transmitting structures and flow-distribution studies.

Trade-offs

  • Sensitive to mechanical damage: The thin 3–4 mm porous sheet is vulnerable to crushing and deformation from heavy impact; clean, dry storage and careful handling are required to preserve the cellular structure.
  • Requires clean, dry storage: The product must be kept in a clean, dry area and protected from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination to maintain the integrity of the porous network.
