LC-300 Open Cell Foam

A Medium density foam with the absorption, flexibility and softness of an open cell foam but can seal as a closed cell foam under compression, as well as having strengths usually associated with closed cell foams.

Features & Benefits of LC-300 Open Cell Foam

Soft & Flexible: Highly compressible, it easily returns to its original shape after compression, perfect for cushioning and sealing.
Sound Absorption: Its porous structure effectively absorbs sound, making it suitable for noise reduction in vehicles, appliances, and chambers.
Fire Retardancy: Self-extinguishing with fire-retardant properties, enhancing safety in applications like HVAC systems.
Low Thermal Conductivity: Offers good thermal insulation with a heat conductivity coefficient of 0.031 W/m·K, ideal for heat insulation.
Chemical and Oil Resistance: Offers moderate resistance to oils, greases, and certain chemicals, suitable for industrial settings where exposure to abrasive substances is common.
High Resilience: With a tensile strength of 170 kPa and 220% tensibility, it resists tearing and withstands deformation.
Weather-Proof and Anti-Aging: Durable in temperatures from -40°C to 80°C, resistant to weather, ozone, and UV light.
Non-Toxic and Certified: Meets ROHS standards, ensuring safety for various applications.
Versatile Applications: Used in HVAC, automotive, packaging, shock absorption, and soundproofing for appliances, displays, and vehicles.

What is LC-300 Open Cell Foam used for?

Sound Absorption:
