What is a Blowing Agent?

A blowing agent is a chemical substance that is widely used in generating the gas to expand rubber, plastics and ceramics to create foam.  It can also be thought of as a type of “baking powder” for rubber, plastics and ceramics.  Blowing agents can add the following benefits and features to make your products:

What is a Blowing Agent Activator?            

Decomposition temperatures rise to high levels when only blowing agents are used and may not satisfy the foam molding conditions.  In such cases, the chemical added to adjust the decomposition temperature of the blowing agent is called the blowing agent activator.

e.g. Urea compound (Cellpaste-K5, etc) and zinc compounds.

What is a Blowing Agent Compound?

We have the capability to produce blowing agents which combine more than two kinds of blowing agents or blowing agent activators in order to create an effective mixture with our own foaming techniques as the manufacturer.  This will make it unnecessary to compound blowing agents by yourself.
