Carrying

The cellular structure of PU foam gives it excellent absorption, dispersion and abrasion qualities. This makes it an ideal support for carrying and transferring liquids and solids. These functions are used in a variety of household and personal care products, such as polishing pads and sponges. The ability to carry moisture is also useful in the medical field (in e.g. in breathing devices) and in many industrial applications (e.g. ceramic filters where foam is used as base structure for coating with ceramic paste or nickel metal).
