  2. Sea foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_foam

    Sea foam washed up or blown onto a beach. Sea foam, ocean foam, beach foam, or spume is a type of foam created by the agitation of seawater, particularly when it contains higher concentrations of dissolved organic matter (including proteins, lignins, and lipids) derived from sources such as the offshore breakdown of algal blooms.

  3. Syntactic foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_foam

    Syntactic foam sphere used as a subsurface float in oceanographic mooring. Current applications for syntactic foam include buoyancy modules for marine riser tensioners, remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), deep-sea exploration, boat hulls, and helicopter and airplane components.

  4. Foam line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_line

    Foam lines are accumulations of foam, with trapped insects, exuvia, etc. found on the surface of freshwater water courses or bodies. [1] Lines appear as individual islands of foam that accumulate against obstructions, shorelines, etc. [ 2 ] Foam lines have some characteristics in common with sea foam from the marine environment which may form ...

  5. Buoyancy aid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyancy_aid

    The foam used in buoyancy aids does degrade with age. Manufacturers add additional foam to ensure that their buoyancy aids will still provide enough force even after years of use. A rough life expectancy is three years of use, although buoyancy aids exposed to polluted water may degrade faster than normally expected.

    The floating solar still operates through an elegantly simple yet highly effective process. First, ocean water is drawn up to the device's foam surface through a wicking system. Once the water ...

  7. Boston Whaler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Whaler

    All motorboats (and certain other boat types) under 20 feet (6.1 m), manufactured for sale in the United States are required by law to have positive flotation, such that a completely swamped boat will still float. [7] This is accomplished through the use of closed cell foam, or other non-permeable material.
