Plastazote and Evazote are thermoplastic expanded materials widely used in clinical environment in contact with the skin. Evazote is more resistant and elastic. They are pure and inert, with no residuum after expansion and a structure with uniform cellular walls. No latex contents, no toxic and hypoallergenic. These material are expanded with no moulds and have low deformation tendency during conversion. They are easy to transform into final products, and even make complex forms. They are suitable for thermo-moulding process, both compressing and vacuum. It's possible to divide, to mill, to cut with water-jet, to butt weld them.

Characteristics:
- No toxic and safe
- light and lasting
- close cellular structure, waterproof
- excellent chemical resistance
- different density
- Excellent thermal isolation
- purity and meager odor
- high resistance to lotions or creams
- Easy to modeling
- transparent to MNR e CAT
- No CFC and HCFC

How to use azote foams:
It's possible to cut and modeling Azote foams, with a sharp cutter or scissor. These foam can be sawed, reduced, drilled, sanded, milled, moulded, cut with water-jet, butt welded and laminated in order to obtain more thickness.
Azote foams can be thermo-moulded by heat and pressure to realize complex shapes. They can be used for several medical applications.
