The information contained herein is intended to provide general information about the use of chemical foaming agents in injection molding.

Effective AA scavenging technologies control AA levels without affecting container aesthetics or recyclability.   Oxygen scavengers are easy to use, keep containers clear, and are guaranteed to perform at a high level when used as recommended.

Denesting additives allow trays and containers to be more easily separated during manufacturing and filling. Reducing the surface friction of PET can offer considerable process efficiency benefits and prevent damage to containers.

These materials have definitely become more complex since that first Tupperware™ container emerged from an injection mold. Limestone is composed mostly of the mineral calcite (CaCO3) but may contain dolomite or another crystalline form of calcium carbonate called aragonite.1   While conventional plastics retain heat, plastics containing thermally conductive fillers distribute heat and carry it away from the heat source.
