Dynapore® porous metal laminates are constructed of one or more layers of carefully selected stainless steel wire mesh, laminated by precision sintering (diffusion bonding) and calendering. Sintering utilizes molecular diffusion to produce homogeneous metal bonds at each point of metal contact, including the wire crossover points within individual layers, as well as the contact points between each layer. The resultant monolithic structure is permanently bonded and has highly uniform porosity.
