Organic thermal decomposition foaming agents
UNIFOAM AZ epitomizes Otsuka Chemical's organic temperature decomposition-type foaming agent, which is mainly composed of Azodicarbonamide. UNIFOAM AZ enables the foaming cell structure in plastics and rubbers to weigh less and thus offers a variety of functioning attributes, such as heat-insulation, flexibility, sound-proof, cushion elasticity, ornamentation, etc.
UNIFOAM AZ chemical foaming agents are derived from hydrazine materials and offer superior foam characteristics and consistently high quality.
Solution
Provide functionality to resins such as PVC, olefin, rubber, etc.
By forming air bubbles in the resin, it contributes to the addition of various functions such as heat insulation, sound insulation, cushioning, flexibility, and decorative properties, as well as to weight reduction.
