Medical Industry

Polyurethane foams, particularly flexible foams, have extensive applications in the medical industry. They are used for various treatments, to protect sensitive medical instruments, and to improve patient comfort. Polyurethane foams are safe, non-toxic materials that play a crucial role in medicine, appearing in all scales from construction materials used in hospital sections to surgical instruments, implants, prosthetics, and medical devices.

In addition to their adjustable physical properties, these materials can be biocompatible and, where necessary, biodegradable. Among the types of soft polyurethane foams, memory foams have gained significant popularity in the medical industry. These foams can respond to temperature and pressure, allowing memory foam products (pillows, mattresses, etc.) to conform to the body’s shape.

The types of polyurethane foams offered by Imen Polymer Chemie Company for use in the medical industry include cold cure foam, memory foam, and integral foam.
