Benefits of Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents
They are endothermic chemical foaming agents that provide the following
benefits in the injection molding process:
Chemical foaming agents versus other technologies
PP T20 with physical
foaming agent (PFA),
large cell structures,
thin outer cover layer
PP T20 + 3% Hydrocerol
concentrate, small cell
structures, thick outer
cover layer

During the activation reaction, chemical foaming
agents principally react in two ways:
• exothermic
• endothermic
Exothermic CFAs release more energy during
decomposition than needed for the reaction.

We use our proven expertise in formulating
high temperature thermoplastics to create
formulations based on materials that include:
• PEEK • PSU
• PEI • LCP
• PES • PPS
• PPSU
These specialty formulations give manufacturers
confidence in the reliability and durability of
their products.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-09/antimicrobials-for-electronics-application-bulletin.pdf
Specifically,
these additives have been proven to be effective
inhibiting E. coli and MRSA across these resins:
• TPE/TPU • PET
• HDPE • ABS
• POM • PP
• PC
Custom formulations can be validated for various
resin types, and under specific processing
conditions, at an independent testing lab to ensure
results in commercialization.
