vaahtomuovilla
Vaahtomuovilla, commonly known as foam rubber or sponge rubber, refers to a class of polymeric materials that are manufactured to contain a large volume of gas-filled cells, or pores, within a solid matrix. This cellular structure is responsible for its characteristic properties, such as low density, compressibility, and flexibility. The production of vaahtomuovilla typically involves introducing a blowing agent into a liquid polymer or reacting the polymer precursors in a way that generates gas. This gas expands, creating the foam structure as the polymer solidifies.
The properties of vaahtomuovilla can be widely varied depending on the base polymer used, the density of
Vaahtomuovilla finds extensive use in a multitude of industries. It is prevalent in the furniture and bedding
