What its Made of
Memory Foam (Visco-Elastic) is made from polyurethane with additional chemicals that add to its viscosity level, thereby increasing the density of the foam. -
Temperature
Depending on the chemicals used and the overall density of the foam, it can be firmer in cooler temperatures and softer in warmer environments. -
density
A memory foam mattress is usually denser than an ordinary foam mattress. -
developed
Memory foam was developed in the late 60's by a group of chemists at NASA's Ames Research Center.
