This article discusses the creation and characterization of albumin based rigid and elastic foams. These foams were created using formaldehyde as the hardener for the protein, while camphor was used as the plasticizer. Crosslinking was carried out using a traditional or microwave oven. Samples differed ...
This paper investigates the effect sulphate exposure has on the thermal conductivity and mechanical strength of low density cement based foams, with and without microfiber reinforcement. This was done by exposing these cement foams to sulfphate over 90 days. The compressive strength and flexural toughness displayed ...
Non-isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) have the potential to replace polyurethane (UP) foams in the future. This study attempts to synthesize non-isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) at room temperature for the first time. A TPS instrument measured the thermal conductivity of the foams using the transient plane source (TPS) ...
This research article delves into the thermal conductivity monitoring of open-cell foams. The foams are created through an intense procedure, in which slip reaction foam sintering is employed. Prior to measuring the thermal conductivities of the foams, a multiscale approach, taking into consideration the homogenization ...
