Foam definition

Foam means a product with a cellular structure formed via a foaming process in a variety of materials that undergo hardening via a chemical reaction or phase transition.
Foam means a stable aggregation of small bubbles which flow freely over a burning liquid surface and form a co- herent blanket which seals combus- tible vapors and thereby extinguishes the fire.
Foam means a rigid or spongy cellular mass with gas bubbles dispersed throughout.

Foam means frothy, generally stable, whitish mass of bubbles formed on or in the water upon agitation of the water.
Foam means a stable aggregation of small bubbles which flow freely over a burning liquid surface and form a coherent blanket which seals combustible vapors and thereby extinguishes the fire.
Foam or “Foam Blowing Agent” means a product or substance used to produce the product with a cellular structure formed via a foaming process in a variety of materials that undergo hardening via a chemical reaction or phase transition, such as polymers and plastics.
Foam means the expansion of a liquid formulation in a ratio of 5:1 or greater through the use of air, a foaming agent, mechanical means, or a combination of any or all of these.
Foam means a product with a cellular structure, or a substance used to produce a product with a cellular structure formed via a foaming process, including materials that undergo hardening via chemical reaction or phase transition.
Foam means any cellular material formed by the dispersion of gas bubbles (whether internally chemically generated, externally incorporated, as by chemical blowing agents, or physically incorporated, as by mechanical whipping or frothing action) within a polymeric base material. Exemplary base material polymers include, but are not limited to, polyurethane, ethylene/vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer, latex, polyethylene, polypropylene, butyl, silicone, cellulose acetate, neoprene, epoxy, polystyrene, phenolic, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). As used herein "Foam" includes not only a single, continuous foam layer but also multiple foam layers, if they are substantially continuously attached to one another.
