Liquid nanofoam lining bolsters football helmets against repeat impacts

Engineers at Michigan State University (MSU) have crafted a new type of liquid foam lining they say can help football helmets better sustain repeated impacts, improving their longevity and the safety of those wearing them. The material would also be thinner and less bulky than the foam liners currently used, and could find use as a safety device in other areas such as automotive manufacturing.Continue ReadingCategory: Materials, ScienceTags: Concussions, Helmets, Michigan State University
