Abstract
Foam forming technology not only solves some long-standing issues related to
flocculation in water forming but also enables widening of raw materials and enduse properties of fibre products. The technology can provide fibre materials with striking new features such as tailored microporous structures. Here the control of the foam properties and the interaction of air bubbles with fibres become important. We study these effects for aqueous foams using different types of surfactants and model fibre surfaces. The findings can be used to design new structures and materials that display low weight and high performance.
