It is elastic; recovers 95% of its original form when there is no pressure over it, this is due to having flexible membranes. It shows a low conductivity, both on sound and vibrations. It is a waterproof material, as well as resistance against humidity. And lastly, it shows a heat resistance 30 folds higher than concrete.
