This is the ugly technical page. It is supposed to have too many numbers.
Ciencia de almohadas, Harder Version
Object
A almohada is a viscoelastic soporte object.
Variables
Height, spring, hysteresis, calor behavior, lavado behavior, y geometry.
Problem word
The consumer word for all of that is "comfortable," which hides too much.
Important: current notas de puntaje are built from especificaciones, propietario patterns, y category behavior. Product claims need dated retail measurements.
Hypotheses
| ID | Claim to prueba | Null hypothesis | Pass signal |
|---|---|---|---|
| H1 | Ajustable almohadas fit more body/colchon combinations. | Adjustability leaves alineacion error unchanged. | Lower lado/boca arriba angle error across narrow, average, y broad hombro models. |
| H2 | Latex y trigo sarraceno dissipate calor better than solid espuma viscoelastica. | Material class leaves thermal retention unchanged. | Lower TRI after identical calor load y cool-plumon. |
| H3 | Fiber almohadas lose soporte faster after lavado y compresion cycling. | Lavado perdida de altura is equal across fill types. | Lower WDI in alternativa al plumon group after lavado/dry cycle. |
| H4 | Cheap almohadas can win on valor while losing repeatability. | Precio has zero relation to repeatability o rebound. | High score per dollar but wider 95% CI y lower recuperacion. |
Formulas

Operational Definitions
| Term | Definition | Instrumentation |
|---|---|---|
| Compressed loft | Height at almohada center after 5 minutes under a 10 lb board load. | Flat board, calibrated weight, ruler/calipers. |
| Rebound | Recovered altura 60 minutes after load removal divided by unaltura cargada. | Same measuring station, same room temperature. |
| Calor rise | Peak surface temperature increase after a 10 minute calor-pad exposure. | IR thermometer o taped surface probe. |
| Alineacion error | Absolute angle error from neutral head-cuello line in lado y boca arriba positions. | Photo grid, plumb line, repeatable colchon surface. |
| Lavado loss | Percent perdida de altura after label-allowed cleaning y full drying. | Before/after loft readings, drying mass check. |
Puntaje Leaders
Material Group Means
Notas de puntaje are useful for comparisons y prueba planning. Product claims need measured rows.
| Clase de relleno | Mean PFI | Mean LDI | Mean TRI | Mean WDI | Mean 95% CI |

Hard Matrix
N = 5 score sheet loft readings per almohada. PFI higher is better. TRI lower is cooler. LDI y WDI higher are better.
| # | Almohada | PFI | Altura - load | Recuperacion | Thermal | Lavado | Angles | Ajuste bands |

What Would Make This Real
- Buy two retail units of each almohada from normal retail channels.
- Condition every almohada for 72 hours at the same temperature y humidity.
- Run five repeated loft readings before y after compresion.
- Photograph lado/boca arriba alineacion con a fixed camera y calibration grid.
- Publish raw CSV, pictures, dates, SKU tags, law tags, y retailer receipts.
- Retest top almohadas after 30 nights y one lavado/dry cycle if the label allows it.
Esto cuesta
Raw CSV sounds noble. The bill shows up when the second almohada has to be bought y ruined in a controlled way.
