  2. Xanadu Houses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanadu_Houses

    Masters built his first balloon-constructed house exterior in 1969 in less than three days during a turbulent snowstorm, using the same methods later used to build the Xanadu houses. [2] Masters was convinced that these dome-shaped homes built of foam could work for others, so he decided to create a series of show homes in the United States.

  3. Food contact materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_contact_materials

    Examples include: the temperature of food products, the fat content of the food products and total time of contact with a surface. The safety of foam food containers is currently debated and is a good example of all three of these factors at play. Polystyrene may melt when in contact with hot or fatty foods and may pose a safety risk.

  4. Closed-cell PVC foamboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-cell_PVC_foamboard

    PVC foamboard is distinct from the extra-lightweight foamcore board, laminated of foam and card surfaces, used for indoor signage and modelling. Like PVC, closed-cell PVC foamboard is solid and has a very rigid structure. Where it differs is in its closed-cell foam structure, which makes it very light (as little as half the weight of solid PVC ...

  5. Defoamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defoamer

    A defoamer or an anti-foaming agent is a chemical additive that reduces and hinders the formation of foam in industrial process liquids. The terms anti-foam agent and defoamer are often used interchangeably. Strictly speaking, defoamers eliminate existing foam and anti-foamers prevent the formation of further foam.

  6. Evaporative-pattern casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative-pattern_casting

    The first patent for an evaporative-pattern casting process was filed in April 1956, by Harold F. Shroyer. He patented the use of foam patterns embedded in traditional green sand for metal casting. In his patent, a pattern was machined from a block of expanded polystyrene (EPS), and supported by bonded sand during pouring. This process is now ...

  7. Firefighting foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefighting_foam

    Firefighting foam is a foam used for fire suppression. Its role is to cool the fire and to coat the fuel, preventing its contact with oxygen, thus achieving suppression of the combustion. Firefighting foam was invented by the Moldovan engineer and chemist Aleksandr Loran in 1902. [1] The surfactants used must produce foam in concentrations of ...

  8. Metal foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_foam

    Open-cell metal foam CFD (numerical) simulation of fluid flow and heat transfer on an open cell metal foam. Open-celled metal foam, also called metal sponge, [3] can be used in heat exchangers (compact electronics cooling, cryogen tanks, PCM heat exchangers), energy absorption, flow diffusion, CO 2 scrubbers, flame arrestors, and lightweight optics. [4]

  9. Foam latex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_latex

    To create foam latex, a liquid latex base is mixed with various additives and whipped into a foam, then poured or injected into a mold and baked in an oven to cure.The main components of foam latex are the latex base, a foaming agent (to help it whip into a froth), a gelling agent (to convert the liquid foam into a gel), and a curing agent (to turn the gelled foam latex into a solid when baked).
