- Researchers have demonstrated a new type of metal so light it can float on water.
- Metal matrix composite was developed with the US Army
- Alloy is turned into foam by adding strong, lightweight hollow spheres
- Warship made of it will not sink despite damage to its structure
- Light weight could improve fuel economy in ultralight cars
The synactic foam captures the lightness of foams but adds substantial strength.
The secret of the foam starts with a amtrix of magnesium alloy which is then turned into foam by adding strong lightweight silicon carbide hollow spheres developed and manufactured by DST
A single spheres' shell can withstand pressure of over 25,000 pounds per sq inch before it ruptures.......a 100 times the pressure in a fire hose.
