ColorMatrix™ Excelite™ IM
Chemical Foaming Additives for Injection Molding
ColorMatrix™ Excelite™ IM formulations for injection
molding feature fully endothermic chemical
foaming agents which, when under thermal
decomposition, cause gas to evolve.
Through
accurate and consistent metering, Excelite IM
additives can provide greater uniformity of foaming
and shot-to-shot consistency, offering a wider
product processing window.
TARGET APPLICATIONS
Excelite IM chemical foaming additives (CFAs) are
engineered for a wide range of injection molded
polymers: olefins, PVC, polystyrene, PC/ABS and
high heat applications.
