Key Applications for PU Foam
Filtering
Perhaps one of the most common applications of medical-grade foam in respiratory devices a filter. The open-cell structure of the foam allows for excellent airflow while trapping particulate matter, bacteria, and viruses.
Sealing and Gasketing
Medical-grade foam is also used for sealing and gasketing in respiratory devices. The foam’s flexibility allows it to conform to the device or user’s facial contours, providing a custom fit that enhances comfort and efficacy.
Vibration Dampening
Medical-grade foam serves as a vibration dampener in certain devices like ventilators and oxygen concentrators. These devices often contain moving parts, and the foam helps absorb the vibration, reducing noise for a quieter, more comfortable patient experience.
Comfort Padding
Foam components can also be used in the design of respiratory masks and other wearable devices to enhance user comfort. Medical-grade foam can be formed and cut into a variety of shapes, providing soft, cushioned padding where it’s needed most.
