Sustainability Spotlight Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents Reflection electron microscopy (REM) view of foamed plastic Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents are supplied as concentrates CHEMICAL FOAMING AGENTS (CFAs) are chemical substances that react under the influence of heat to release gas into the plastic matrix during the manufacturing process of plastic parts. Wire & Cable Chemical foaming agents can be used in polymers for wire and cable applications as nucleating agents in the physical foaming process, creating regular and small foam cells. Building & Construction Chemical foaming agents create an especially fine-celled foam structure in extruded goods.

Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives Chemical Foaming Agents (CFA) for Medical Devices and Pharmaceutical Packaging As the need to integrate sustainability in the design of healthcare products is growing, manufacturers of medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging are looking for materials with a more environmentally-friendly profile. One angle is to offer chemical foaming agents that help reduce plastic material use. These CFAs are the result of Avient’s combined experiences in the development of chemical foaming agents for automotive plastic components and polymer solutions for healthcare applications.
