Effect of the surface treatment of hollow micro balls used as foaming agent on improving wettability with molten Al and increasing porosity and pore uniformity has been experimentally studied. The results show that hollow microballs by surface actived treating
compared with untreated hollow microballs
can be easily dispersed in the molten Al
and the pore size and dispersed uniformity are improved
and foaming time is enlonged
and foaming process is more beneficial to manipulate. The porosity increases from 60% to 68% or 72% as the balls are steeped in Na 2CO 3 aqueoas solution or treated by nickel plating
