About Foam Blowing Agents
The blowing agent is a chemical substance that is used in generating a gas to expand rubber, plastics, and ceramics to create foam. Blowing agents are used to impart features such as low weight, heat insulation, sound absorbency, permeability, elasticity, electrical insulation, excellent textures, wood grain, and shock absorbency. Blowing agents are used in the production of various types of foam such as rigid extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam, rigid PUR foam, and flexible PUR foams. These foams are used in various applications such as insulation foam for appliances, flexible-faced laminates, sandwich panels and composites, rigid slab stock, in-situ PUR foam, and pipe insulation.
