What is Estimation of Mechanical Properties for Rigid Polyurethane Foams about?

## Abstract Rigid plastic foams find application in construction mainly as core materials for loaded sandwich structures—in buildings, ground vehicles, and airplanes. This work provides an equation for the mechanical behavior of polyurethane foams as a function of foam density. Starting from a model conception and the qualitative microscopic consideration of the deformation and failure mechanism, simple relations are found for the tensile, compressive and shear strength and the elastic modulus, which sufficiently express the measured results.
