Application and future of solid foams
[Applications et avenir des mousses solides]
Comptes Rendus. Physique, Volume 15 (2014) no. 8-9, pp. 719-730.

Pour conclure cette série d'articles sur les mousses solides, celui-ci propose une revue des applications industrielles actuelles et des perspectives de mise sur le marché à moyen terme, centrée sur les mousses artificielles, ceci faisant référence aux matériaux cellulaires naturels. Bien que le développement industriel des mousses polymères surclasse le reste et trouve des applications sur de nombreux segments de marché, on s'attardera davantage sur les marchés émergents des mousses (et matériaux cellulaires) inorganiques – plus particulièrement métalliques – et sur leurs applications, actuelles ou à venir. On montre que les applications finales des mousses solides sont d'abord liées au transport et que le développement de différentes classes de mousses solides auquel on assiste de nos jours est contrasté, entre des applications fonctionnelles et structurales.

To conclude this series of chapters on solid foam materials, a review of industrial current applications and of mid-term market perspectives centred on manmade foams is given, making reference to natural cellular materials. Although the polymeric foam industrial development overwhelms the rest and finds applications on many market segments, more attention will be paid to the emerging market of inorganic—especially metallic—foams (and cellular materials) and their applications, present or upcoming. It is shown that the final applications of solid foams are primarily linked to transport and the present-day development of the different classes of solid foams is contrasted between functional applications and structural applications.
