Standard series
With variety of density lineup, this series corresponds various applications, such as seals, vibration insulation and shock absorption

 

PET support series
PET film body molding technology realizes a thinner foam with a low resilience and contains additional features, such as flame-retardant properties. This series can satisfy any field of customer needs

LO/FR series
This series features low-gassing and flame-retardant (UL94 HBF) with consideration to safety and environmental protection

 

SPECIAL SURFACE series
While maintaining the same basic characteristics, we have added a series with new features like high friction and high slidability, through special surface treatment

Standard Series
Low compression set, high sealability, excellent energy absorption, no migration, high dimensional stability, high fabricating efficiency, thickness accuracy
With variety of density lineup, this series corresponds various application, such as seals, vibration insulation and shock absorption

LE The softest product in the standard series. With its low stress property and compressibility; this type has been widely used for toner seals.
L A softer product in the standard series being used for a wide range of cushioning and packing materials.
H A hard product in the standard series. This type offers a high physical strength being used as sealing materials or vibration damping materials.
HH A harder product primarily being used for the foot pads of audio devices; home electric appliances and office appliances. The C type that has excellent gripping property is also available.

LO/RF Series
Flame-retardant, low out-gassing, low compression set, high sealability, excellent energy absorption, no migration, high dimensional stability, high fabricating efficiency, thickness accuracy

This series features low out-gassing and flame-retardant (UL94 HBF) with consideration to safety and environmental protection.

MS A product similar to the LE type in the standard series. It is one of the softest materials among the LO/FR series allowing for production of very thin products
ML A soft material similar to the L type in the standard series.
MH A hard material similar to the H type in the standard series.
CH A hard material which is similar to the H type in the standard series. Additionally EG type (special surface treatment ) is also available
TR This highly heat-resistant type achieves overwhelmingly low compression set at a high temperature range (70ºC – 110ºC). Even at room temperature; it delivers more stable performance.

PET Support Series
Thinness, soft, rigid, low compression set, high sealability, excellent energy absorption, no migration, high dimensional stability, high fabricating efficiency, thickness accuracy

PET film body molding technology realizes a thinner foam with a low resilience and contains additional features, such as flame-retardant properties. This series can satisfy any field of customer needs.

SR-S The SR grade with low resistance is formed by casting low-resistance SR onto a PET film. Combining softness and strength; it has a great track record for products like smartphones; packaging LCE displays for PCs; and etc. A PN – type with adhesive is also available. (SR-S-15PN)
SR-N and SR-U Flame-retardant materials and are UL94 HBF-certified.
ASRS It has all the same excellent advantages as SR-S. Additionally ASRS is resistant to static electricity. It is ideal for anti-static applications.
SS The high- resistance material; while similar to the Standard Series; is equivalent in softness to the SR-S grade. Its features excellent temperature dependence
WP With our own unique formulation technology; this grade increased water-repellent performance This waterproof type passes IPX7 equivalent test.
MS;MH This version of MS/MH is formed by casting LO/FR Series MS/MH onto a PET film. This is the PET Support Series’s high flame-retardant material. A PR-type with removable PET film is also available. (MS-40PR)

Special Surface Series
Low compression set, high sealability, excellent energy absorption, no migration, high dimensional stability, high fabricating efficiency, thickness accuracy

While maintaining the same basic characteristics, we have added a series with new features like high friction and high slidability, through special surface treatment

EG The special surface treatment of this material provides not only less stickiness but a more stable and higher gripping force
CH-32EG | CH-48EG | MX-40EG | MX-48EG
HF This boasts the highest gripping force in the product lineup through special surface treatment technology
MX-48HF
C This exhibits a stable and higher gripping force though special surface treatment technology
HH-48C
PN A thin adhesive mechanism has been integrated into the casting process which provides a high adhesive force after the release liner is removed and eliminates the need for adhesive tape
SR-S-15PN
PR A thin adhesive mechanism is integrated into the casting process which provides a light adhesive force after the PET film is removed. It can be used as a temporary fixing or setting point in a repetitive process and it improves workability
MS-40PR
T The surface combines strong surface characteristics and excellent flexibility through special surface treatment technology
MS-40T
LF Special surface treatment technology provides higher surface slidability and adhesion prevention performance.
