Reticulated Open Cell Foam
All foam products company offers a variety of open cell and closed cell foams that are made in the u s a.
Reticulated open cell foam. Reticulated means like a net. Some open cell foam is unique in that it operates more like a spring easily returning to its original state after compression thanks to the unrestricted air. Filter foam also named reticulation foam blasting foam. Filter foam also known as reticulated foam is a porous low density reticulated flexible polyester polyether urethane foam.
Reticulated foam open pores allowing maximum water drainage and air circulation quick drying foam ideal in the marine environment for seating mattresses and deck mattresses its open cellular structure allows water to pass through freely. This foam is dark charcoal. With an open cell structure and three dimensional skeletal strand structure. We provide custom fabrication of these materials through various cutting technologies and bonding methods.
In a reticulated foam only the lineal boundaries. It is also used as speaker foam due to the high air flow its structure allows. 10ppi 60ppi reticulated open cell polyether based polyurethane foam. Quick dry foam reticulated foam.
A reticulated open pore flexible ether type of polyurethane foam. Available in pore size grades from 15ppi through 100ppi in sheets or roll form. With an open cell structure and three dimensional skeletal strand structure. Reticulated cell walls are removed to increase the porosity of the foam the porosity of foam listed in ppi pores per inch 20 30 ppi are ether based all others are ester based for filters only.
There are few if any intact bubbles or cell windows. Characterized by a skeletal structure of strands which provide a constant 97 percent void space and a very high degree of permeability. Reticulated foams are extremely open foams i e. Filter foam is a porous low density reticulated flexible polyester polyether urethane sponge.
Common open cell materials include reticulated foam polyurethane foam and open cell rubber. Foam is usually classified as open cell when more than half of its cells are open. Reticulated foam is a very porous low density solid foam. Polyester foam is a flexible open cell type of polyurethane foam that is porous and has a uniform cell structure.
