Azodicarbonamide
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Azodicarbonamide is a high-performance Technical Grade chemical foaming agent used primarily in the plastics industry. It appears as an orange-red powder that decomposes at high temperatures to release nitrogen gas.
The product is valued as a maturing agent and dough conditioner in the food industry, improving the volume and texture of baked goods. In polymer processing, it creates a uniform cellular structure in expanded foams.
This specialty chemical is highly stable at room temperature but offers a predictable decomposition range for industrial extrusion. It is a vital component for the manufacturing of lightweight products such as floor mats and insulation.
APPLICATIONS
- Plastic Foaming: Blowing agent for PVC, EVA, and PE to produce soft-touch foams and synthetic leathers.
- Flour Treatment: Maturing and bleaching agent used in large-scale commercial bakery operations.
- Gasket Manufacturing: Used in the production of automotive and industrial seals requiring high elasticity.
SAFETY & RISKS
Classified as a Respiratory Sensitizer (Category 1) and Flammable Solid. May cause asthma symptoms. Use Dust-Proof PPE, including N95 Masks and Protective Coveralls.
