Development of Lightweight Magnesium/Glass Micro Balloon Syntactic Foams Using Microwave Approach with Superior Thermal and Mechanical Properties

Magnesium matrix syntactic foams (MgMSFs) are emerging lightweight materials with unique capabilities to exhibit remarkable thermal, acoustic, and mechanical properties. In the current study, lightweight glass micro balloon (GMB)-reinforced Mg syntactic foams were synthesized via the powder metallur...
