SOVA Science: The Importance of Storage Modulus
The Science of a Better Day
Many have asked about our Research and Development at ATI ( Akervall Technologies Inc.) Here is some of the science explained.
Storage Modulus
Storage modulus is a very important parameter for mouthguards because it is a measure of how much impact energy can be elastically stored in the material. The SOVA material with a storage modulus of 450 MPa, has the capacity to dissipate 10 times more energy in the form of rebound energy than EVA, with a storage modulus of 40 MPa.
The Storage Modulus of the SOVA material is one example of the SOVA Advantage.
