Memory Foam Temperature Test

Warm foam recovers faster than cool foam.

Teaching & key ideas

What you do: Compress cooled and warmed areas. What students see: Warm foam recovers faster than cool foam. Why it works: Polymer motion depends strongly on temperature. Question to ask: Why does the same foam behave differently?
