The Cell Lab Porous Copper Foam is a high-purity (≥99.99%) copper substrate designed for cutting-edge applications in energy storage, catalysis, and heat dissipation. Featuring a 3D open-cell architecture with 98% porosity and 110 PPI, this material provides an extensive surface area for efficient electron transport, rapid ion diffusion, and enhanced thermal conduction.
Engineered for lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, and thermal management systems, this copper foam supports uniform material deposition, in-situ electrode growth, and improved heat dissipation. Its combination of high conductivity and structural integrity makes it ideal for both research environments and industrial-scale energy device manufacturing.

Q1: Why choose copper foam over nickel or aluminium foam?
Copper offers significantly higher electrical and thermal conductivity, making it ideal for high-current or heat-dissipating systems.
Q2: Can this material be used as a current collector?
Yes. Its conductivity and structural rigidity make it a premium choice for current collectors in both cathode and anode systems.
Q3: Is this foam suitable for supercapacitor electrode growth?
Absolutely. Its 3D network promotes uniform coating and superior charge distribution.
Q4: Can I request thicker sheets or continuous rolls?
Yes. Custom thicknesses (0.3–3.0 mm) and roll formats can be produced to order.
Q5: How should the foam be stored and handled?
Store in a dry, low-humidity environment. If mild oxidation occurs, surface cleaning with dilute acid can restore brightness and conductivity.
