Polyimide Foam UPILEX®-FOAM

UPILEX®-FOAM is a new type of polyimide form that has been developed by our original technology of polyimide process.Polyimide originally has the highest heat resistance in engineering plastics.UPILEX-FOAM is produced from polyimide in the process of our own, making the best use of the feature of polyimide.It shows improved properties over a wide range of environmental conditions, compared to the conventional polyimide foam.UPILEX-FOAM is applicable to a variety of use such as thermal, acoustic and mechanical vibration insulation, and weight saving for transportation systems such as aerospace vehicles, ships and automobiles, and for electric devices.

Features
  • High heat resistance(Tg: 401ºc)
  • Good thermal insulation
  • Good processability
  • Light weight (~6kg/m3)
  • Flame resistance
  • Low outgassing
  • Excellent resistance to radiation, UV and chemicals, and excellent electric insulation.
