Chemical Foaming Agents for Extrusion of Styrenics
For the foam extrusion of styrenics granular masterbatch foaming agents are preferred
because they can be easily dosed directly to the extruder.
Our Technical Service Department will be glad to help you choose the best product from our
range for your application. Please use our contact form for your enquiries.
