This invention is directed toward a splint, where there is a layer of
material, such as fabric-laminated foam neoprene, that encompasses a part
of the body intended to be immobilized, supported, or protected, and
permanently secured to this layer of material is a low temperature
thermoplastic. This thermoplastic is rigid when cool, and malleable when
heated. The temperature at which the thermoplastic is malleable is low
enough so that the splint can be molded directly on the body. The
thermoplastic can be heated, molded, and cooled together with the layer
of material. The combined elements of the low temperature thermoplastic
with the layer of material create a removable remoldable splint that can
be immersed in water without degrading the integrity of the splint.
