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.
The portfolio
includes non-hazardous endothermic substances
that require minimum cooling of the plastic parts
after manufacturing.
SUPPORT
Our experts can offer product recommendations
in the chemical foaming of plastics, taking into
consideration:
• Manufacturing process
• Application polymer grades
• Regulatory requirements (e.g., food contact
compliance, toy regulations)
• Targeted performance requirement
(e.g., lightweighting, polymer use reduction,
insulation, improved processing)
They also provide technical assistance and best
practices for using Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming
Agents in the best conditions for a successful
foaming of the plastic parts.

ECCOH™ XL Cross-Linkable Solutions (8001)
Moisture-cured cross-linkable, low smoke and fume, non-halogen
(LSFOH) formulations for flame retardant wire and cable applications
ECCOH™ XL Cross-Linkable Solutions (ECCOH
XL 8001) are non-halogenated flame retardant
formulations for the manufacturing of
thermoset cable insulation.
When used with a
catalyst masterbatch, these materials enable
the manufacturing of thermoset insulation
using the silane chemical crosslinking process.
Manufacturers of cable insulation who require
flame retardance in their products benefit from
ECCOH XL 8001.
