Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents Foaming Prediction Service

Reduce Material Costs and Improve Processing with New Foaming Fluoropolymer Wire Insulation Technology BETHEL, Conn. – PolyOne Colorant Chromatics just launched a new chemical foaming solution for fluoropolymer wire insulation that can reduce par

Multi-station rotary presses allow more cooling time for molding foamed parts. If a foaming agent is required (to produce foamed parts), a mechanical shut-off nozzle must be used to control foaming activity and to prevent drooling. PP carrier is not recommended for softer grades, as the compound hardness will be affected.

Our composite panels are custom engineered by varying core thicknesses to increase or decrease stiffness; by varying core materials (including end-grain balsa, foam or engineered woods) to increase or decrease weight; by varying fiber to modify the stiffness-to-weight ratio; and by varying the base polymer to increase or decrease strength. * 4 point flex., 44 in. span, ASTM 7249 Note: Additional core materials available.
