Ceramic foam is a tough, plastic-like foam made from ceramics. The word ceramic is derived from the Greek word κεραμικός ( keramikos) It is similar to Kevlar. Kevlar is the registered Trademark for a light strong para-aramid Synthetic fiber, related to other Aramids such as Nomex and The foam is made of aluminum oxide, a common high-temperature ceramic, but gets its extraordinary insulating powers from the many tiny air bubbles within the material. (Air is a very good thermal insulator, but needs to be trapped, as in a blanket, to be effective. The term thermal insulation can refer to materials used to reduce the rate of Heat transfer, or the methods and processes used to reduce heat transfer ) The foam can be used not only for thermal insulation, but for a variety of other applications such as acoustic insulation and adsorption of environmental pollutants. Soundproofing is any means of reducing the intensity of Sound with respect to a specified source and receptor Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into an environment that causes instability disorder harm or discomfort to the physical systems or living organisms they are in
