Introduction: the close connection between AC blowing agent and PVC industry
Azodicarbonamide (AC blowing agent) is a highly efficient chemical blowing agent, widely used in the foaming process of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) materials.As a multifunctional material, PVC has a wide range of applications in the fields of construction, packaging, automotive, electronics and so on. As a multifunctional material, PVC has a wide range of applications in construction, packaging, automotive, electronics and other fields. The addition of
AC blowing agent can significantly reduce the density of PVC material, enhance its sound insulation and heat insulation properties, and improve the softness and elasticity of the product.
The role of AC blowing agent in PVC foaming principle
Foaming mechanism
AC blowing agent under heating conditions (usually 160 ° C to 200 ° C) decomposition, the release of nitrogen, carbon dioxide and other gases. These gases form a homogeneous bubble structure in the PVC material, which reduces the density of the material and improves its properties.
Key parameters of the foaming process
Decomposition Temperature: The decomposition temperature of
AC blowing agent needs to match the processing temperature of PVC to ensure uniform foaming effect.
Gas release: The gas release of
AC blowing agent directly affects the density and bubble structure of PVC material.
Bubble uniformity: uniform bubble structure can enhance the mechanical properties and appearance quality of PVC materials.
The technical advantages of AC blowing agent in PVC industry
Efficient foaming performance
AC blowing agent can decompose quickly at low temperature, generate a large amount of gas, form a uniform bubble hole structure, and significantly improve the performance of PVC materials.
Cost-effectiveness
Compared with other chemical blowing agents, AC blowing agent is inexpensive and suitable for mass production, which can effectively reduce the production cost.
Multifunctionality
AC blowing agent is applicable to a variety of PVC materials and processes, and can meet the needs of different industries. Whether it is the manufacture of lightweight panels or the production of highly elastic packaging materials, AC blowing agent can provide the ideal foaming effect.
Environmental performance
AC blowing agent in the decomposition process produces gas mainly nitrogen and carbon dioxide, less impact on the environment, in line with the needs of modern industry for environmentally friendly materials.
