Tuning the mechanical integrity and corrosion performance of open-cell copper foams: identification of an optimization threshold

Abstract In this work, Porous copper foam samples were fabricated by a space-holder technique with water-atomized copper powder and sodium chloride (NaCl) particles in weight fractions ranging from 10 to 35 wt%. The powders were mechanically mixed at a 10:1 ball-to-powder ratio a...
