Silicone has excellent high temperature performance and chemical resistance. PP is compatible with midblock of SEBS.

Benefits of Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents They are endothermic chemical foaming agents that provide the following benefits in the injection molding process: Chemical foaming agents versus other technologies PP T20 with physical foaming agent (PFA), large cell structures, thin outer cover layer PP T20 + 3% Hydrocerol concentrate, small cell structures, thick outer cover layer Photo source: Neue Materialen Bayreuth (GmbH) During the activation reaction, chemical foaming agents principally react in two ways: • exothermic • endothermic Exothermic CFAs release more energy during decomposition than needed for the reaction. Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents are ready- to-use CFAs in either pellet or powder form. Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents can be used in low pressure and high pressure processes.
