## Abstract Liquid metal foam can be generated by creating gas inside a liquid or semiβliquid metallic melt which has been preβtreated in a suitable way. Such foams are selfβsupporting disordered structures in complete analogy to aqueous foams. The stabilisation mechanism of metallic foams is still
New methods for studying the foaminess (the surface foam stability) and the foam stability (the internal structural foam stability) have been elaborated. The experimental technique and results are presented. Copyright 1998 Academic Press.
The fundamental stabilization mechanism for foaming metal powder compacts (PM foams) is investigated. It is shown that PM foams belong to the class of stable foams where the stability is controlled by the balance of interfacial forces which equilibrate after drainage has been completed. The origin o
