HyPUR-cel® R2224T
HyPUR-cel® R2224T is a high-resilience open cell polyurethane foam in the HyPUR-cel® R-series with a typical density of 22 pcf (19–25 pcf tolerance) and a 25% Compression Deflection of 24 psi (19–29 psi tolerance) per ASTM D1056. It delivers 58% resilience per ASTM D2632 together with 170 psi tensile strength, 250% elongation and 30 lb./in tear strength. The material operates across a service temperature range of -40°F to 250°F and is engineered for stable energy return, low hysteresis loss and excellent stress relaxation resistance through repeated cyclic compression.

HyPUR-cel® R2224T is a medium-firm 22 pcf grade in the HyPUR-cel® R-series, pairing a 25% Compression Deflection of 24 psi with 58% resilience per ASTM D2632. The R-series is engineered with an elastomeric cell structure rather than relying on pneumatic rebound, so it maintains cellular and dimensional integrity through more than one million cycles at 50% compression.
R2224T combines that energy return with 170 psi tensile strength, 30 lb./in tear strength and 250% elongation for dynamic sealing, footwear and sporting goods components, and repeated-deflection bumpers and stops. A compression set of 1.7% per ASTM D1056, excellent stress relaxation resistance and low hysteresis loss keep contact pressure and rebound consistent over the product’s service life. The foam accepts adhesives, laminated fabrics, films, custom coatings and composites.
What differentiates R2224T from R2015T and R2035T within the HyPUR-cel® R-series?
R2224T sits between them in firmness at 24 psi Compression Deflection (versus 15 psi for R2015T and 35 psi for R2035T) at a slightly higher 22 pcf density, and offers the highest resilience of the three at 58%. It is specified when a medium-firm dynamic foam with maximum energy return is required.
Why is resilience important for R2224T in dynamic applications?
Resilience measures how efficiently a foam returns energy after deflection. R2224T achieves 58% resilience per ASTM D2632, and because the R-series uses an elastomeric cell structure rather than pneumatic rebound, it holds that response through repeated cyclic compression (1M+ cycles at 50% compression). That translates to consistent force recovery in sealing, footwear, sporting goods and bumper applications.
What is the service temperature range for R2224T?
R2224T is rated for continuous service from -40°F to 250°F as listed on the Rubberlite property sheet.
Is R2224T rated for flammability or other compliance standards?
No flammability rating or compliance standards are listed on the manufacturer's current property sheet for R2224T. Flame retardant and anti-microbial additives are available depending upon volume, and H-O can arrange application-specific testing.
How should R2224T be specified?
Specify grade (R2224T), thickness, dimensional tolerances, and finished format (roll, sheet or die-cut part), plus any adhesive, film or fabric lamination.
