PE33 is a closed cell polyethylene foam, therefore it does not absorb water. The density is 33kg per cubic meter, so one block of foam (1m x 1m x 1m) would weigh only 33kg. The hardness of foam is measured with a shore hardness gauge and is expressed as degrees Shore C. PE33 has a shore hardness of around 17 degrees Shore C.
Applications: Insulation, seals and gaskets, expansion joints, packaging, camping mats, etc.
PE45 is a closed cell polyethylene foam, therefore it does not absorb water. The density is 45kg per cubic meter, so one block of foam (1m x 1m x 1m) would weigh only 45kg. The hardness of foam is measured with a shore hardness gauge and is expressed as degrees Shore C. PE45 has a shore hardness of around 26 degrees Shore C, which is firmer than PE33.
Applications: Tooling inserts, packaging, pool kick boards, toys, and all applications where good impact resistance is required.
EVA33 is a closed cell Ethylene vinyl acetate foam, therefore it does not absorb water. The density is 33kg per cubic meter, so one block of foam (1m x 1m x 1m) would weigh only 33kg. The hardness of foam is measured with a shore hardness gauge and is expressed as degrees Shore C. PE45 has a shore hardness of around 11 degrees Shore C, which is slightly softer than PE33.
Applications: Life jackets, boat seats, water resistant cushioning etc.
EVA45 is a closed cell Ethylene vinyl acetate foam, therefore it does not absorb water. The density is 45kg per cubic meter, so one block of foam (1m x 1m x 1m) would weigh only 45kg. The hardness of foam is measured with a shore hardness gauge and is expressed as degrees Shore C. EVA45 has a shore hardness of around 17 degrees Shore C, which is slightly firmer than EVA33. EVA45 has a good memory, and recovers well after compression.
Applications: Seals and gaskets that require a good memory or recovery after compression.
T5 is a closed cell blend of PE and EVA, therefore it does not absorb water. The density is 80kg per cubic meter, so one block of foam (1m x 1m x 1m) would weigh only 80kg. The hardness of foam is measured with a shore hardness gauge and is expressed as degrees Shore C. T5 has a shore hardness of around 30 degrees Shore C, which is significantly firmer than PE33.T5 has a good memory, and recovers well after compression.
Applications: Seals and gaskets that require a good memory or recovery after compression. It is also good for packaging inserts where a firm foam is required, and helps with impact resistance.
AERO Foam is a closed cell extruded foam, so is not crosslinked like all of the PE and EVA foams. The cells appear as bubbles packed tightly together. The density is 33kg per cubic meter, so one block of foam (1m x 1m x 1m) would weigh only 33kg. The hardness of foam is measured with a shore hardness gauge and is expressed as degrees Shore C.
Applications: Insulation, expansion joints, void fillers, cushioning and packaging.
