      • PERFORMANCE
        Applications and Functions of Electrocell Foam

        FXI's Electrocell foam can be found in Inkjet printer cartridges as an ideal ink reservoir and delivery media for precision and efficient printing. Our digital imaging technology is also used in color and monochrome laser printers: our polyurethane printer roller provides the flexible and conductive cellular element to pickup and apply multiple color toners to paper. In color laser printers, a charged printer roller provides the flexible and conductive cellular element to impart a charge to the printing media. In Inkjet printers, ink cleaning digital imaging technology provides a porous substrate for effective blade wiping maintenance.
