Composite Metal Foam's (CMF) light weight, fire, blast, ballistic, impact and vibration protection capabilities leading to improved safety, efficiency and performance of cars, buses, trucks and all moving structures. Potential application of CMF in automobile structures are:
- Electric battery enclosures to protect against thermal runaway, impact, blast, ballistics
- Crash worthiness parts and structural components to protect in accident scenarioto and absorb the accident energy/ protect passengers
- Lower the total weight of the automobile leading to lower gas consumption
