1. Core Material Characteristics
Slow-Rebound Foam: Slowly returns to its original shape after being compressed (as opposed to the instant rebound of ordinary foam).
Temperature Sensitivity: Body temperature softens the material, automatically conforming to the curves of the head and neck (it hardens at low temperatures).
2. Functional Design
Pressure Distribution: Evenly distributes pressure on the head and neck, reducing localized pressure points (such as the auricle and back of the head).
Filling Gap: The fluid texture fills the unfilled areas at the natural curves of the shoulder and neck.
3. Differences from Traditional Pillows
Feature | Memory Foam Pillow | Traditional Pillow (Polyfill / Down) |
Support Logic | Adapts to you(Slow-molding → You shape it) | Fixed shape → You adapt to it |
Recovery Speed | Slow rebound (3-5 sec) | Instant bounce |
Indentation | Impressions fade gradually | Permanent dips form over time |
4. Application Scenarios
For those with suboptimal cervical spine health: Supports the natural curvature of the cervical spine, alleviating morning stiffness and pain. For those who wake easily: Noiseless when turning over, and virtually no vibration when the partner gets up.
Postoperative Recovery: Reduces the risk of pressure ulcers on the coccyx and elbows during bed rest.
5. Contraindications
Use with caution if you are sensitive to heat: the heat-storing properties may exacerbate night sweats (choose a breathable gel version).
Not suitable for infants and young children: the slow rebound property poses a risk of suffocation.
Those who dislike the "sinking" feeling: Those accustomed to the firm support of buckwheat pillows may develop a fear of being trapped.
6. Lifespan and Maintenance
Signs of aging: Cracking and powdering, rebound time exceeding 10 seconds.
Secrets to longevity: → Avoid direct sunlight (UV rays embrittle the material) → Ventilate and dehumidify quarterly (to restore the sponge's open-pore structure) → Never wash (gently rub local stains with cold soapy water).
