Cymat Technologies Ltd V.CYM

Alternate Symbol(s):  CYMHF

Cymat Technologies Ltd. is a manufacturing company. The Company holds licenses and related patents to manufacture and sell Stabilized Aluminum Foam (SAF), a cellular metallic material. SAF is produced utilizing a process in which gas is bubbled into molten alloyed aluminum containing a dispersion of fine ceramic particles to create foam, which is then cast into strong, lightweight panels and shapes. The Company is manufacturing SAF for use in architectural, blast mitigation and energy absorption applications. It develops applications for use in the automotive and industrial markets. Its divisions include SmartMetal and Alusion. Its SmartMetal stabilized aluminum foam products are effective at absorbing an amount of energy in a lightweight and recyclable package. SAF is used in such industries as architectural design, military and automotive. It markets its architectural SAF under the Alusion brand and its automotive and military SAF under the SmartMetal brand.

RE: Cymat foam

RE: Cymat foamJust add heat or cooling to the water surrounding the aluminum foam and you can get a very good thermally conductive foam core material to be used for heating or cooling. This is what I found recent patent holders are experimenting with for products like Hydrogen Generators, Heat Exchangers (metal sponge), Centrifugal for cooling mechanisms etc. The light-weight aspect is just another advantage, the cell structure may be used differently to be more porous or more thermally conductive for different applications. 

Big corporations like IBM have a patent for "Cooling of substrate using interposer channels" which incorporates aluminum foam. Other firms are considering the use of fluids surrounding aluminum foam cell structure material to generate an efficient thermconductive area to draw heat from electronics to a heat sink. I even saw a patent from Raytheon utilizing this type of application for satellite components with the added benefits of eliminating some types of electronic interference in order to reduce component costs of other equipment parts. 

I don't know if these types of products are directly applicable to the Cymat process, but if some of them are potentials, this is the type of thing that could involve technology licensing for other companies to produce a variety of components across quite a few industries.
