Nanofoams are a class of nanostructured, porous materials (foams) containing a significant population of pores with diameters less than 100 nm. Aerogels are one example of nanofoam. [1]

Nano Foam Kit 2.0 is specifically designed to be safe for your car's surface and will not cause any scratches. The nano-foam technology used in the kit ensures a gentle yet effective cleaning process. The foam particles encapsulate and lift away dirt and grime without applying any harsh pressure on your car's paint or finish.

Highly uniform samples of carbon nanofoam from hydrothermal sucrose carbonization were studied by helium ion microscopy (HIM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Raman spectroscopy. Foams with different densities were produced by changing the process temperature in the autoclave reactor.

Nanofoams can be porous or non-porous, so their research has far-reaching applications. Porous nanofoams can be used for advanced filtration systems that need to allow nutrients, air and water to flow through, such as medical meshes that are placed in a body, agricultural weed barriers, or protective clothing and gear.

Apr 16, 2024 · Nanofoam is a class of nanostructured materials characterized by a disordered and porous structure, featuring a substantial volume fraction of submicrometric voids and pores, typically exceeding 90% of their volume.

Carbon nanofoam is one of the lightest solid materials known today, having a density of ~2 mg/cm 3. It has an extremely high surface area and is a good electrical insulator.

Oct 2, 2019 · Nanofoams are produced from two PMMA grades of widely different molecular weight; a solid-state foaming process is used with CO 2 as the blowing agent. We characterize the microstructure of the nanofoams in terms of porosity f, cell size l …

Mar 11, 2025 · In 2020 and 2022, Weiyi Lu, an associate professor in MSU’s College of Engineering, developed a liquid nanofoam material made up of tiny holes surrounded by water that has been shown to protect the brain against traumatic injuries when used as a …

Sep 15, 2016 · Herein, we propose a new concept of lightweight “rime-like” structured carbon-phenolic nanocomposites to solve this problem, where the 3D chopped network-structured carbon fiber (NCF)...

Carbon nanofoam is an allotrope of carbon discovered in 1997 by Andrei V. Rode and co-workers at the Australian National University in Canberra. [1] It consists of a cluster-assembly of carbon atoms strung together in a loose three-dimensional web.
