Problems solved by technology

Due to the needs of civil and high-tech fields such as automobiles, aluminum foam special-shaped parts and sandwich structures are becoming the forefront in the field of metal foam preparation. Among them, it has been reported that closed-cell aluminum foam is used for energy absorption, and the existing aluminum foam materials are in the field. When used as an energy absorber, its energy absorption efficiency is about 60%, and debris will be generated during the energy absorption process, which may damage the packaging, cause personal injury, and also adversely affect the safe operation of the surrounding electronic circuits
At present, the shape of the energy absorber made of integral foamed aluminum material is relatively simple due to the limitation of the preparation process, and the applicability to the special-shaped structure that needs to be protected is not high, and it is often subject to various restrictions, especially for the protection of large-volume parts. Integral foamed aluminum The preparation of alloy materials is very difficult, and the method of splicing will reduce the energy absorption effect; the energy absorber using secondary foamed aluminum alloy special-shaped parts can increase the absorption efficiency by more than 10%, meeting the requirements of various high-tech fields.
