About Iron Honeycomb

Honeycombs are most often an array of hollow hexagonal cells with thin vertical walls. Sheets of metal can be placed on the top and bottom of the honeycomb to create a strong flat surface. Iron Honeycomb is low density permeable material with numerous applications. The defining characteristic of these Honeycombs is a very high porosity, typically 75-95% of the volume consists of void spaces. Metallic Honeycombs have found a wide variety of applications in heat exchangers, energy absorption, flow diffusion and lightweight optics. Ceramic Honeycomb is often used for thermal insulation, acoustic insulation, adsorption of environmental pollutants, filtration of molten metal alloys, and as substrate for catalysts requiring large internal surface area. The geometric structure of iron honeycomb allows for the minimization of material used thus lowering weight and cost. The honeycomb pattern has a high strength-to-weight ratio. Iron Honeycomb is generally immediately available in most volumes. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available. Iron honeycomb is used in numerous engineering and scientific applications in industry for both porosity and strength.

The number of electrons in each of Iron's shells is 2, 8, 14, 2 and its electron configuration is [Ar] 3d⁶ 4s². The iron atom has a radius of 126 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 194 pm. Iron was discovered by humans before 5000 BC. In its elemental form, iron has a lustrous grayish metallic appearance. Iron is the fourth most common element in the Earth's crust and the most common element by mass forming the earth as a whole. Iron is rarely found as a free element, since it tends to oxidize easily; it is usually found in minerals such as magnetite, hematite, goethite, limonite, or siderite. Though pure iron is typically soft, the addition of carbon creates the alloy known as steel, which is significantly stronger.
