The capillary infiltration of the Zn-22Al-2Cu (Zinalco) alloy into NaCl packed particles of sizes 496, 687, and 945 μm was studied using centrifugal casting. The threshold pressure for infiltration of NaCl particles with Zinalco was deduced experimentally, which increased as the diameter of the particles decreased. The work of immersion was determined from the threshold pressure with a value of 2.1. The infiltration proceeded at distinctly different rates for the three particle sizes studied. An equation to predict the threshold pressure to infiltrate Zinalco alloy into NaCl particles for given particle size and volume fraction was established. The micromechanical analysis showed that the strength of the foam depended strongly on the level of infiltration of the derived foam. As the level of infiltration increased, the stress distribution in the foams produced became homogeneously distributed in all the struts that make up the cell, which increases the strength of foam. The elastic modulus of the as-produced Zinalco foams is governed by structural parameters such as the pore size and the strut length. Thinner and shorter struts in the foam increase its ability to resist elastic deformation in the foam.

中的Zn-22Al-2CU（Zinalco）合金制成的NaCl的毛细管渗透包装尺寸496，687的颗粒，和945  μ使用离心铸造研究了m。通过实验推导了Zinalco浸入NaCl颗粒的阈值压力，该阈值压力随着颗粒直径的减小而增加。从阈值压力（值为2.1）确定浸入功。对于所研究的三种粒径，渗透以明显不同的速率进行。对于给定的粒径和体积分数，建立了一个方程式来预测将Zinalco合金渗入NaCl颗粒的阈值压力。微观力学分析表明，泡沫的强度在很大程度上取决于衍生泡沫的渗透程度。随着渗透水平的提高，产生的泡沫中的应力分布变得均匀地分布在组成泡孔的所有支杆中，这增加了泡沫的强度。刚生产的Zinalco泡沫的弹性模量受结构参数（例如孔径和支杆长度）的控制。泡沫中较细和较短的支柱增加了其抵抗泡沫中弹性变形的能力。
