Aerospace
Composite Metal Foam (CMF) lighght weight, fire, blast, ballistic, impact and vibration protecting capabilities leading to improved safety, efficiency and performance. Potential application of CMF in aerospace structures are:
- Cockpit doors ballistic protection
- Bird strike protection
- Jet engine parts (light weight and insulator)
- Landing gear
- Leading edge (impact protection, wear resistance, possibility to infuse the porosities)
- Seat protection from hard landing
- Helicopter parts (lightweight, vibration and impact protection)
- Satellite and space shuttle (protection against meteorites, space debris, extreme heat, explosion of high-output batteries and vibration)
- Drones exposed to extreme environments
