· JVASP-134820· POF

POF (Polyolefin Foam) is a closed-cell foam ceramic composed primarily of polyolefin polymers, characterized by its lightweight structure and low density. It is widely used in packaging, thermal insulation, cushioning applications, and as a core material in composite structures across automotive, aerospace, and construction industries. Engineers select POF for its excellent energy absorption, thermal resistance, and cost-effectiveness compared to traditional foam ceramics, making it particularly valuable in applications requiring impact protection and temperature stability.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
