https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-01/Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents for Injection Molding Technical Bulletin.pdf
Key factors contributing to the fine cell structure are the particle size of the blowing agent, the dispersing capability of the molding machine, the decomposition rate of the foaming agent, the melt viscosity and the molecular structure of the thermoplastic resin itself.
ADDITION LEVELS OF FOAMING AGENTS Both the foaming agent and the thermoplastic resins are metered into the injection molding machine.
Compared to conventional thermoplastic foam injection molding (TFIM) without mold expansion, CBE creates a lower-density foam with an increased stiffness-to-weight ratio.
