BISCO MF1® Silicone Foam

MF1® "bun stock" is used primarily as cushioning, padding, insulation, and it is also incorporated into MFSaf-t-Matt™ institutional bedding products. Rogers Corporation's proprietary process and patented chemical formulations make it possible to manufacture MF1® silicone foam in thickness' greater than 4 inches and densities as low as 5 lbs/ft***. BISCO's MF1® silicone foam is structurally resilient with low compression set and 100% "spring back" memory, which is supported by a 10 year guarantee.

Jounce & Squirm Cushion Fatigue Results
After 1,000,000 cycles in the "Jounce and Squirm" fatigue test, MF1® silicone foam did not show any noticeable deformation.

Rogers Corporation provides a 10 year warranty for material and workmanship on all MF1® silicone foam cushioning material.

Data noted above is based on laboratory tests and should be used as a reference only. Further information and additional specification are available upon request. Tests, claims, representations and descriptions regarding flammability are based on standard laboratory tests and, as such, may not be reliable for determining, evaluating, predicting or describing the flammability or burning characteristics under actual fire conditions, whether used alone or in combination with other products. Accordingly, each potential user should make an individual determination whether the flammability or burning characteristics of the product are suitable for the purpose intended by the user.
