Description

Duocel® Energy Absorbers are the cutting-edge technology improving safety across industries.  No matter how or where a force hits, Duocel® omnidirectional energy absorbers respond smoothly and predictably, without a sharp spike in yield strength.

Naturally lightweight, the aluminum foam structure bonds seamlessly to face sheets, making it an ideal core material for a wide range of products.

Available in 200 or 400 PSI, Our technology allows simple integration with existing products, providing peace of mind knowing that Duocel® will perform exactly as expected when it counts the most.

  • Isotropic compression absorbs impacts in ANY direction
  • No sharp spike in yield strength
  • Minimal to no rebound energy return
  • High strength-to-weight ratio
  • Wide Energy Absorber Zone; predictable deceleration after an impact event

 

Energy absorbers are a class of products that generally absorb kinetic mechanical energy by compressing or deflecting at a relatively constant stress over an extended distance, and not rebounding. Springs perform a somewhat similar function, but they rebound, hence they are energy storage devices, not energy absorbers. Duocel® metal foam materials are porous structures and they have a unique stress strain curve as reproduced below.

All Duocel Energy Absorbers are designed to absorb the total impact energy within a 50% strain (i.e. half the total thickness). The remaining material thickness then acts as a safety “backup” zone that absorbs any excess energy.

Contact us for custom shapes and sizes or to discuss implementation with your system.  Whether you’re designing the next generation of vehicles, crafting safer equipment, or pioneering new technologies, Duocel® is your competitive edge.
