Tempo's Precision Foam Beads
Expandable Bead Material Density
Bead density affects performance of finished beads and molded parts.
.
     
  Density is a measure of weight per given unit of volume, such as...
"grams per cubic inch" or "pounds per cubic feet"  or "grams per liter"
 
     
  1 liter = 61.023 cubic inches
one pound = 453.6 grams
 
     
  Heavier densities are available up to 480 G/L  

.
