Nucleating agents help neutralize the effect of pigments on mechanical properties to avoid warping and shrinking
Mevopur nucleating agents help neutralize the effect colors can have on the mechanical properties of the finished plastic part to avoid warping and size variability.

Thus, parts which have been foamed with exothermic CFAs, must be cooled for a longer period of time to avoid post-expansion.
This way, an early expansion of the dissolved gas out of the melt can be avoided.
Minimal to no holding pressure is applied for foam injection molding to avoid cell compression, except when thicker outer skins are desired.
