BLENDED BLOWING AGENT

Blended blowing agent are designed to provide functionality to foamed materials and meet the diverse processing needs conventional blowing agents cannot. These blended blowing agents provide functional enhancements to foamed products and create bubble shapes that are impossible using conventional Azodicarbonamide-based agents. We offer different grades of blowing agents optimized for our customer’s ideal processing conditions: decomposition temperature, gas volume, etc.

INORGANIC BLOWING AGENT

Inorganic blowing agent made from inorganic carbonate and sodium bicarbonate. Inorganic blowing agent improve the efficiency of the blowing process through endothermic reactions. This type of reaction enhances the quality of the foamed product and avoids issues seen in organic foaming agents such as discoloration and unpleasant smells.
