Metal Foam Handles Heat Better Than Steel

A new study from North Carolina State University researchers finds that novel light-weight composite metal foams (CMFs) are significantly more effective at insulating against high heat than the conventional base metals and alloys that theyโ€re made of, such as steel. The finding means the CMF is especially promising for use in storing and transporting nuclear
