Preforms of titanium powders containing a naphthalene‐based space‐holder phase are swaged. The elongated space‐holder particles are sublimated and the preform is sintered, resulting in titanium foams with 49–65% porosity consisting of: a) small equiaxed pores from incomplete powder sintering and b) larger, elongated pores replicating the space‐holder, which are aligned along the swaging direction. The foam carbon content (0.39 wt%) is below the value for severe titanium embrittlement.
