[![Rogers PORON 40V0: A Thinner UL 94-Rated Solution](https://blog.marianinc.com/hubfs/Rogers-PORON-40V0-blog-featured-image.png)](https://blog.marianinc.com/blog/poron-40v0)

Rogers Corporation’s**[PORON® 40V0 foam](https://marianinc.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/17-480-PORON-4701-40V0-Technical-Data-Sheet.pdf)** gives engineers a thinner, softer, and UL 94 compliant solution for gap filling and cushioning.

Unlike standard polyurethane foams, PORON 40V0 combines reliable flame resistance with enhanced compressibility in slimmer grades, making it ideal for space-constrained designs. It also meets strict environmental standards and minimizes contamination risks in critical applications.

[![Enclosure Design Basics: Applications, Sealing, & Protection](https://blog.marianinc.com/hubfs/EI%20blog%202%20image.jpg)](https://blog.marianinc.com/blog/enclosure-design-basics)

<https://marianinc.com/enclosure-institute/>What exactly are enclosures, and why does sealing them matter so much? It might seem basic, but it's important we start off our discussion by defining what an enclosure is and explain why we created a whole educational series on enclosures.

Keep reading to see our break down of the role of enclosures across a range of industries, from [battery](https://marianinc.com/non-automotive-battery/) to [medical](https://marianinc.com/markets/medical/) to [electronics](https://marianinc.com/markets/electronics/) and more, and get an introduction to some of the organizations that set the standards for enclosures all over the world.
