Artilon is a closed cell, chemically cross-linked polyethylene foam available in roll or sheet form. Superior mechanical and physical properties make Artilon suitable for low water absorption, thermal and chemical insulation, shock absorption, buoyancy and cushioning. Fire retardant grades are available for specification requirements of MVSS 302 and UL 94HF. Artilon is ideal for applications in construction, automotive insulation, specialized packaging and sporting goods.
A selection of foam approved for MVSS 302 and UL 94HF is also available.
