Abstract

This invention discloses method and apparatus for producing electroplated foam metal by spraying. The method comprises: placing surface-treated cathode plate into an electroforming tank, controlling the temperature of the electroforming solution at 20-65 deg.C, spraying via the spray nozzle connected with the central chamber of the anode bar to the cathode plate at a rate of 1.5-7.5 m / s to obtain a branch-like or sponge-like metal deposition layer, controlling the current density at 200-750 A / dm2, controlling the movement of the spray nozzle along the vertical direction, the horizontal lateral direction and horizontal longitudinal direction to form a porous foam metal deposition layer with required thickness and shape, and drying the foam metal deposition layer. The method has such advantages as no need for auxiliary medium, simple process and convenient production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a metal foam manufacturing method and equipment, in particular to a metal foam manufacturing method and equipment without adding any auxiliary medium, in particular to a metal foam spray electroforming manufacturing method and its device. Background technique [0002] As we all know, metal foam is a new type of engineering material, which has a three-dimensional network structure, high porosity (40-98%, vol), and large specific surface area. Generally speaking, metal foam materials have the following characteristics: light weight, common Good permeability, strong energy absorption, low thermal conductivity, good electromagnetic shielding. The existing more than a dozen metal foam preparation methods can be roughly divided into the following four categories: liquid phase method, solid phase method, gas phase method, and electrodeposition method. The basic idea of ​​the liquid phase method is to form a porous metal material by b...
