KOREL® Micro-Cellular Polyurethane Foam
 

Korel Detail   KOREL® micro-cellular polyurethane foams are offered in a broad range of properties, making them ideal for a variety of gasketing and energy absorption needs.

 

KOREL® micro-cellular foams are categorized by degree of deflection force. By varying the modulus and density, Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics has developed a series of high-performance foam materials that meet the demands of design engineers in today's market.

 

Gasketing

KOREL® offers excellent compression set resistance and high resiliency that ensures the seal will not break down over extended use. This outward force helps maintain air, dust and water seals in a variety of conditions.

 

Control Unwanted Energy

The KOREL® line of cushioning foam is ideal for controlling unwanted energy. These special formulations protect sensitive components by dampening shock, dissipating motion and isolating vibration.

 

Product range:

K20 - very soft

K30 - soft

K40 - medium

K50 - firm

K60 - very firm
