Foam Techniques Ltd - Everyday Applications Of Thermal Foam
Thermal foam is a substance used in the world around us on a day to day basis
although we may not be aware of it.
Thermal foam has a unique set of properties
that mean that it is able to act as a barrier to heat, insulating a particular area or
component from another.
These properties have the potential to increase the
efficiency of many processes and ensure that heat is confined to where it is needed
and prevented from encroaching on areas where it is not desirable.
One of the most basic applications of thermal foam is in the production of consumer
cooler bags.
These bags are designed to be used in the summer in order to preserve
perishable food on a day out.
By definition, a cooler bag must keep the contents cool
by preventing the encroachment of heat from the external environment.
Moreover,
when cooler blocks are used the cooler bag must also maintain the cool internal
temperature.
It is thermal foam that enables coo
