Defkalion actually alters the crystalline structure. Cracks do not appear to be the issue in their reaction. They have found a secret in altering the crystal structure to increase the reaction. I'll bet that the reactions occur at the surface still.
Note that Defkalion uses nickel foam, not powder.
