Breakthrough Developments in Very Thin Foams for Cushion-Mount Tapes
The market demand for extremely thin foam with superior properties and tolerances has not been satisfied.
Voltek, Division of Sekisui America Corp., recently introduced a closed-cell, irradiated, crosslinked polyolefin foam, which is available in a thickness range of 0.012" to 0.075" and a density range of 8 to 20 lb/ft3. Volara HPT 0.012" is the thinnest crosslinked foam manufactured in North America. Volara HPT foams also offer the tightest gauge and density control in the industry along with superior mechanical properties. (See graph and table below.)
