Sparks, NV – ERG Materials and Aerospace is exhibiting at MRO Americas 2023 in Chicago, IL on April 9th– 11th at McCormick Place Convention Center. Company representatives will show product demonstrations and answer questions about their Duocel® foam material—a lightweight, rigid, and customizable open cell foam material with solid ligaments.
Finished aerospace products and foam samples will be on display in booth 4853 to demonstrate the abilities of this exciting material. This is a great opportunity for manufacturers and researchers to experience firsthand how open cell foam can solve difficult problems in all facets of the aerospace industry.
The patented light-weight material is used in a variety of applications ranging from high efficiency heat exchangers to flame arrestors and catalyst support for carbon capture and ozone scrubbers.
All of ERG’s products feature high surface area to volume ratios, making it exceptional for applications requiring high performance in small design envelopes. Duocel® also has a high strength to weight ratio, resulting in a lightweight structure with superior impact protection. This patented material offers solutions not available with traditional technologies.
ERG is the sole manufacturer of Duocel® foam and has a team of experienced engineers to design custom foam-based products. Knowledgeable engineers can help optimize the proper foam specification and other project decisions customers may not be experienced with, ultimately reducing design and development time. Two production facilities in the United States offer the capability to deliver finished products directly to the customer, in both high and low volumes.
Duocel® foam is available in a variety of materials including aluminum, copper, steel, carbon and ceramics such as silicon carbide.
