Memory Foam Mattress Toppers | JOOVE Article PortalThere's nothing that can compare to memory foam mattress toppers. There's lot's of other bed topping materials out there, but there's nothing that can uniquely cradle your body and completely distribute your weight evenly over the surface. Toppers are great for that purpose because they are designed specifically for that. But to have a complete mattress made just from memory foam would probably be too soft and actually unsupportive. Memory foam is most effective when layered on top of a more firm foam. Together they provide optimal support. This is the reason you normally see toppers 3 inches in height. Several things make memory foam so special. The first is how the memory foam cells compress when under weight. It differs from normal foams that simply compress, but quickly try to spring back to their original form. The cells in a memory foam fully compress and distribute their air pressure to neighboring cells. This is possible because it is a open cell foam, meaning there are holes in the cells of the foam. This fact makes it able to evenly spread ones weight over the surface, thus reducing a person's pressure points. This is what gives it its special body shaping properties. Furthermore, memory foam is sensitive to its environment's temperature. The warmer the temperature the softer the foam becomes and the cooler the temperature the firmer the foam becomes. This is why memory foam is often called visco-elastic foam. Because memory foam mattress toppers are sensitive to temperature, it gives one that relaxing sensation as you gently sink into the foam. Depending on the composition of the memory foam, it can be more or less sensitive to temperatures. Memory foam toppers are one of the best options for those with uncomfortable mattresses. They can greatly improve the quality of your mattress and sleep. Many people with and without chronic pain boast of the positive effects of memory foam toppers. |
