Powder metallurgical manufacturing of fiber- reinforced closed-cell aluminum foam

The invention describes a process for the production of fiber-
reinforced aluminum foam. The composite has advantages
compared to the non-reinforced foam like higher mechanical
properties and greater stiffness. By the fibers the influence of
the non-homogeneous pore distribution can be reduced. Withe
respective reinforcement fibers the energy absorption can be
increased to without increasing the global density.
