ABSTRACT:
A ceramic foam reinforced structural material is disclosed as comprising either a hollow-legged or a solid legged ceramic open-celled foam. The foam is saturated with or surrounded by a resilient polymeric or other ductile material such as a plastic, to obtain a structural member with the high compressibility of ceramics while eliminating the edge brittleness inherent therein. The ductile material further provides the material with suitably fastenable and workable surfaces. Where an impact barrier is desired to be made of the structural material the ceramic foam is disclosed as being filled at least partially with a flowable material such as a liquid or a gel.
