Chemical Foaming Agents for Injection Moulding of Polyolefins
Chemical foaming agents are used in injection moulding of polyolefins to reduce the weight
of the parts (so-called structural foam), to reduce sink marks and warpage and to achieve
special surface effects. Most foaming agents for this application are endothermic.
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.
