Abstract

A method of manufacturing essentially crack-free carbon foam structures and carbon foam structures made in single-piece flow through a continuous kiln under inert atmosphere at atmospheric pressure. This process greatly reduces the cost to manufacture by reducing manufacturing time and increasing the ability to integrate automation equipment.
