Zotefoams: Zotek

Zotek foams are a range of high performance foams manufactured, using Zotefoams’ unique high-pressure nitrogen gas solution manufacturing process, from fluoropolymers, engineering polymers and speciality elastomers.

Zotek N is a range of lightweight, closed cell, foams, currently in development and based on the engineering thermoplastic polyamide. The main benefits of polyamide are its thermal and chemical resistance. Polyamide is particularly resistant to swelling by hydrocarbons such as oils, which combined with its thermoplastic nature allow complex shapes to be fabricated economically.

Zotek S is a range of ultra-lightweight, closed cell, foams based on the speciality silicone elastomers that are currently being developed. The main benefits of silicone elastomers are high temperature resistance and burning behaviour having low smoke and low toxicity. Unlike other silicone foams, Zotek S retains its closed cell structure to exceptionally low foam densities.
