Basic Info

This supercritical CO₂ physical foaming agent is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional chemical foaming agents, using non-toxic, recyclable carbon dioxide as the foaming medium. It is designed for plastic extrusion and injection molding processes, creating uniform, fine foam cells in plastic products without leaving any residual chemical components. Targeted at food packaging manufacturers, automotive plastic part suppliers, and consumer goods plastic producers, it solves the problem of harmful VOC emissions and residual chemicals in traditional foamed plastic products.

Customer reviews

David · Polymer Materials Researcher
The supercritical CO₂ physical foaming agent delivers exceptional precision in microcellular foam production. We've utilized it for automotive interior parts, achieving consistent cell sizes below 50μm. The absence of chemical residues makes it environmentally superior to traditional blowing agents. The dimensional stability of finished products exceeds industry standards by 30%.

Product Description

Product features:

Unlike chemical foaming agents that release toxic byproducts during curing, this physical foaming agent only uses CO₂, which is completely harmless and leaves no residual substances after foaming, making it ideal for food contact applications. It produces extremely uniform foam cells with a narrow size distribution, improving the structural stability and surface quality of foamed plastic products. The foaming process can be precisely controlled by adjusting pressure and temperature, allowing manufacturers to customize foam density and cell structure according to product requirements. It also reduces material usage by up to 30% compared to solid plastic products while maintaining excellent mechanical performance, helping producers cut costs and improve sustainability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q:What are the key advantages of using supercritical CO₂ as a physical foaming agent?
A:Supercritical CO₂ offers non-toxicity, environmental friendliness, and precise pore size control. It enables uniform cell structure formation in polymers, reduces material density by 10-30%, and leaves no chemical residues.
Q:How does supercritical CO₂ compare to traditional chemical foaming agents?
A:Unlike chemical foaming agents, supercritical CO₂ requires no decomposition, eliminates VOC emissions, and provides better process control. It achieves 20-50% higher expansion ratios without byproducts.
Q:What industries commonly use supercritical CO₂ foaming technology?
A:Key applications include automotive (lightweight components), packaging (insulation materials), medical (porous implants), and footwear (cushioning midsoles). The technology is FDA-approved for food-contact materials.
Q:What temperature and pressure conditions are required for supercritical CO₂ foaming?
A:Typical parameters range 31-80°C (critical temperature) and 7.4-30 MPa (critical pressure). Exact settings depend on polymer type, with amorphous polymers requiring lower pressures than crystalline ones.
Q:Can supercritical CO₂ be used with all polymer types for foaming?
A:Best results are achieved with PS, PP, and PU. Semi-crystalline polymers require precise temperature control near melting points. CO₂ solubility varies - amorphous polymers absorb 5-15% by weight, while crystalline ones typically absorb <5%.
