Abstract
Inorganic porous materials have been widely investigated owing to their outstanding properties, such as large surface area, low density, mechanical stability, and good permeability. Some interesting examples of foams obtained by SHS are presented. Porous NiTi shape-memory alloys (SMA) with ideal pore characteristics and high strength for hard tissue implants have been fabricated by combustion synthesis. MoSi2–Al cermet foams may be obtained under the combustion mode using PTFE as foaming agent.
