EVAvaahtopohjaiset

EVAvaahtopohjaiset refers to products or materials that utilize ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam as their primary base. EVA foam is a closed-cell foam copolymer created from ethylene and vinyl acetate. The proportion of vinyl acetate in the copolymer can be varied to create materials with different properties. Higher vinyl acetate content generally results in a softer, more flexible, and more transparent foam with better adhesive qualities. Conversely, lower vinyl acetate content leads to a harder, more rigid, and opaque material.

EVA foam is known for its excellent shock absorption, vibration dampening, and thermal insulation properties. It is also resistant to UV radiation and ozone, making it suitable for outdoor applications. Its lightweight nature and flexibility contribute to its widespread use in various industries.

Common applications for EVAvaahtopohjaiset products include footwear, where it is used in midsoles for cushioning and support, and sporting goods, such as yoga mats, protective gear, and buoyancy aids. It is also found in packaging materials for fragile items, craft supplies, and as a component in automotive interiors for sound dampening and comfort. The versatility of EVA foam allows for its use in both rigid and flexible forms, depending on the specific requirements of the application. Its non-toxic and hypoallergenic characteristics further enhance its suitability for consumer products.
