Foam consists of a mass of small bubbles that are formed when air and a liquid are mixed together. ...Foam or foam rubber is soft rubber full of small holes which is used, for example, to make mattresses and cushions.
Foam is an object formed by trapping pockets of gas in a liquid or solid. A bath sponge and the head on a glass of beer are examples of foams. In most foams, the volume of gas is large, with thin films of liquid or solid separating the regions of gas. Soap foams are also known as suds.
Examples of Foams
Examples of foams formed by gases in liquids include whipped cream, fire retardant foam, and soap bubbles. Rising bread dough may be considered a semisolid foam. Solid foams include dry wood, polystyrene foam, memory foam, and mat foam (as for camping and yoga mats). It's also possible to make a foam using metal.
