Foam

Foam is a two-phase material system and a type of dispersed media, consisting of gas cells dispersed in a continuous liquid or solid phase to form a cellular structure.: 4 In most foams, the gas occupies most of the volume and is divided into bubbles separated by thin films of liquid or solid material.: 4
