This unique foam is normally closed cell and chemically cross-linked. Its light weight and shock absorption properties make it perfect for making mattresses. Here, different shapes are used for the corners and sides as well as the interiors to come up with the perfect mattress. Polyethylene foam is also used for custom bottle stoppers, roll-bar padding especially for the racing cars and the equivalent.
It makes perfect insulator because it's a bad conductor of both heat and electricity. In this case, it is widely used in pipe insulation in buildings. it makes good handles for hot materials like for example where one end is heated, then the other one used for holding. In cases such as vehicles with load doors that are held by strong cables, polyethylene foam is used to insulate them so that when people offloading goods hit themselves accidentally on the cables they don't get hurt.
