A polymeric foam is a special foam, in liquid or solidified form, formed from polymers.
Examples include:
* Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam, the copolymers of ethylene and vinyl acetate; also referred to as polyethylene-vinyl acetate (PEVA)
* Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) foam, first grade of polyethylene (PE)
* Nitrile rubber (NBR) foam, the copolymers of acrylonitrile (ACN) and butadiene
* Polychloroprene foam or Neoprene
* Polyimide foam
* Polypropylene (PP) foam, including expanded polypropylene (EPP) and polypropylene paper (PPP)
* Polystyrene (PS) foam, including expanded polystyrene (EPS), extruded polystyrene foam (XPS) and sometimes polystyrene paper (PSP)
** Styrofoam, including extruded polystyrene foam (XPS) and sometimes expanded polystyrene (EPS)
* Polyurethane (PU) foam
** LRPu low-resilience polyurethane
** Memory foam
** Sorbothane
*Polyurea foam
*Polyethylene foam, as used in PEF rod
* Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) foam
** Closed-cell PVC foamboard
* Silicone foam
* Microcellular foam
