Author: Synwin -Mattress support

The foam mattress is divided into three basic categories: foam plastic, memory foam and latex foam. There are other sub -categories, each category has different characteristics. In summary, these three can be made into excellent beds. They are very comfortable, have a lot of support for suitable people, and lack classic internal spring structures.

They are made of different materials, with different density, and the advantages and disadvantages are slightly different. The following is an overview: Bubble plastic: made of polyurethane and has been popular since the 1950s. It is often used as the top comfort layer of the built -in spring mattress, but it can also be a mattress itself.

Memory foam: It is also made of polyurethane, but chemicals were added during the process of fine processing to make it have a rebound function, which produced the name of "memory bubble". Memory bubbles have a very unique sponge feeling different from other foam. Latex foam: It is a thermal treatment product made of liquid latex. It can be extracted from rubber trees (Brazilian rubber trees) or made of petroleum products in the laboratory.

There are natural and synthetic latex mattresses.
