Abstract
The invention relates to a module for absorbing energy from an impact to which the module () has been subjected, via deformation, comprising a core () made of a polymer foam with a density of at most 0.2 g/cmand with a compressive modulus of elasticity of at most 200 MPa measured to DIN EN 826, wherein the core () has an at least to some extent enclosing shell () made of a polymer material, and/or comprises an insert () made of a polymer material, where the density of the polymer material of the shell () and/or of the insert () is at most 2.0 g/cmand its tensile modulus of elasticity is at least 700 MPa, measured to DIN EN ISO 527.
