High Density Microcellular Polyurethane Foam
High-density microcellular polyurethane foam combines a polyurethane matrix with fine cells to provide specified compression, damping or structural behaviour.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
High Density Microcellular Polyurethane Foam is a kind of polyurethane foam that has the characteristic of high density and low foam. It is relatively soft material, with a variety of surface mount and adaptability, with the shape better, with excellent resistance to compression and compression resilience, excellent shock absorbing properties. It’s widely Used in mobile phones, hard drives, digital cameras, GPS, laptop, CD-ROM, monitors, PDA, speakers, computer housing seal, instrument panels, shock absorbing, sealed precision electronic appliances, laptops and other sealing.
In this report, we define the High Density as above 6 lbs/ft³ density Microcellular Polyurethane Foams.
Density alone does not determine load response. Cell structure, geometry and compression rate influence stiffness, energy absorption and recovery.
What turns activity into demand
The finished component determines whether melt processing, reactive casting or waterborne film formation is appropriate. Environmental ageing and cyclic loading often distinguish apparently similar grades.
The commercial boundary
TPU pellets, reactive prepolymers, dispersions and foams are different supply objects. Grade labels do not replace application-specific material and finished-part validation.
Does density alone predict compression and recovery?
Density alone does not determine load response. Cell structure, geometry and compression rate influence stiffness, energy absorption and recovery.
