  • Viscoelastic (Memory) Foam “Low-Resilience” Foam, in That It Lacks the Surface “Springiness” of Other FPF Products
    Published by the Polyurethane Foam Association www.pfa.org Volume 11 | No. 1 (Revised 2016) description of viscoelastic polyurethane foam as “dead” or Viscoelastic (Memory) Foam “low-resilience” foam, in that it lacks the surface “springiness” of other FPF products. In fact, certain viscoelastic foam iscoelastic foam, also known as memory or temper foam, products claim to absorb up to 90% of impact. While lack of was first commercialized during the mid 60’s as a result of resilience may appear to be a disadvantage, as discussed later, a NASA’s AMES Research technology transfer program. V “dead” foam can be highly desirable in some applications. This open-cell variety of flexible polyurethane foam (FPF) is distinguished by properties allowing it to redistribute the G- In addition to these key advantages, many viscoelastic products Force suffered by astronauts during take-off and re-entry, and also react to body temperature and ambient temperatures, providing commercial pilots a more comfortable seating surface softening with heat and more easily adjusting to body contours. during long flights. Viscoelastic pressure distribution performance represents one of the most significant comfort innovations from the FPF industry. Characteristics Viscoelastic foam is typified by its slow recovery after compression. When a weighted object (for example, the human body) is positioned on viscoelastic foam, the foam progressively conforms to the shape of the object, and after the weight is removed, the foam slowly reassumes its initial shape. Due to this gradual recovery, viscoelastic foam also can be described as “slow recovery” foam. Other characteristics include viscoelastic foam’s ability to dampen vibration as well as absorb shock.
