  2. Foam rubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_rubber

    Foam rubber was first made in 1929, by E. A. Murphy [2] and Eric Owen, two research chemists at Dunlop Rubber, who used whipped latex. In 1937, isocyanate-based materials were first used to make foam rubber. After World War II, styrene-butadiene rubber replaced many natural types of foam. Foam rubber has been used commercially for a wide range ...

  3. Polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane

    Polyurethane foam (including foam rubber) is sometimes made using small amounts of blowing agents to give less dense foam, better cushioning/energy absorption or thermal insulation. In the early 1990s, because of their impact on ozone depletion , the Montreal Protocol restricted the use of many chlorine -containing blowing agents, such as ...

  5. Neoprene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoprene

    In its native state, neoprene is a very pliable rubber-like material with insulating properties similar to rubber or other solid plastics. Neoprene foam is used in many applications and is produced in either closed-cell or open-cell form. The closed-cell form is waterproof, less compressible and more expensive.

  6. Ethylene-vinyl acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene-vinyl_acetate

    Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), also known as poly (ethylene-vinyl acetate) (PEVA), is a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate. The weight percent of vinyl acetate usually varies from 10 to 50%, with the remainder being ethylene. There are three different types of EVA copolymer, which differ in the vinyl acetate (VA) content and the way the ...

  7. Foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam

    Foam rubber is a type of open-cell foam. A closed-cell metal foam. Closed-cell foams do not have interconnected pores. The closed-cell foams normally have higher compressive strength due to their structures. However, closed-cell foams are also, in general more dense, require more material, and as a consequence are more expensive to produce.
