In this study, three typical impact-protective materials, D3O, PORON XRD, and DEFLEXION were chosen to explore the dependences of rheological and compression mechanical properties on the internal cellular structures with polymer matrix characteristics, which were examined using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analyses, and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The rheological property of these three foaming materials were examined using a rheometer, and the mechanical property in a compression mode was further examined using an Instron universal tensile testing machine. The dependences of rheological parameters, such as dynamic moduli, normalized moduli, and loss tangent, on angular frequency, and the dependences of mechanical properties in compression, such as the degree of strain-hardening, hysteresis, and elastic recovery, on the strain rate for D3O, PORON XRD, and DEFLEXION can be well-correlated with their internal cellular structural parameters, revealing, for example, that D3O and PORON XRD exhibit simultaneously high strength and great energy loss in a high-frequency impact, making them suitable for use as soft, close-fitting materials; however, DEFLEXION dissipates much energy whether it suffers a large strain rate or not, making it suitable for use as a high-risk impact-protective material. The rheometry and compression tests used in this study can provide the basic references for selecting and characterizing certain impact-protective materials for applications.
