PU Polyether Foam
What is Polyether Foam?


Properties of Polyether Foam
Polyether foam is known for its soft and resilient structure. Its open-cell configuration allows for efficient airflow, enabling heat and moisture to dissipate effectively. This makes it particularly suitable for applications where comfort and hygiene are paramount. Additionally, polyether foam is resistant to humid conditions but less suitable for environments involving oils or greases.
Key properties include:
Open-cell structure: Ensures excellent ventilation
Soft and comfortable: Ideal for prolonged use
Moisture-resistant: Suitable for humid applications
Cost-effective: Offers a favorable price-performance ratio
Lightweight: Easy to handle and process
Polyether foam is available in various densities and hardness levels, depending on the intended application. This adaptability makes it widely applicable and easy to tailor to specific requirements.
Advantages of Polyether Foam
Utilizing polyether foam offers several benefits. Its airy structure provides comfortable support and effective temperature regulation, which is especially important in sleeping and seating solutions. Moreover, polyether foam is easy to process, cut, and bond, reducing the production time of final products.
Furthermore, polyether foam boasts a long lifespan under normal use and resists aging caused by air and light exposure. This durability makes it a sustainable choice for comfort-focused applications.
Applications of PU-Polyether Foam
- Mattresses and toppers: for optimal ventilation and sleeping comfort
- Seating furniture: chairs, sofas, and armchairs
- Cushions: head pillows, medical cushions, and back supports
- Medical devices: where comfort and ventilation are crucial
- Acoustic padding: in environments with minimal exposure to oils or greases
