Optimized for Industrial UseThis EPDM rubber blowing agent is engineered for reliable performance in industrial settings, including automotive and construction sectors. Its fine particle size and decomposition properties allow consistent foaming, integral to producing high-quality rubber and polymer components such as seals, gaskets, and cable insulation.
Safe Handling and StorageThe blowing agent is classified as non-toxic and non-flammable, but it should still be handled with care. Store it in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from heat sources and ignition points. Proper storage ensures its effectiveness and prevents decomposition, preserving its quality throughout the 12-month shelf life.
FAQs of Epdm Rubber BLOWING AGENT:
Q: How is the EPDM Rubber Blowing Agent used in manufacturing processes?
A: It is incorporated into EPDM rubber or compatible polymer mixes where, upon heating to its decomposition temperature (~200C), it releases gas to form a cellular structure, producing lightweight, flexible foam products.
Q: What benefits does this blowing agent offer in end products?
A: The agent enables foam formation, resulting in reduced material weight, improved cushioning, thermal insulation, and flexibility, making it ideal for automotive, construction, and footwear applications.
Q: When should the EPDM Rubber Blowing Agent be added during production?
A: It should be blended with the polymer or rubber compound prior to molding or extrusion. Activation occurs during heating, causing decomposition and gas generation within the material matrix.
Q: Where can this blowing agent be effectively applied?
A: It is suited for industries producing automotive interiors, seals, gaskets, footwear soles, cable insulations, and construction profiles, wherever foam or lightweight materials are required.
Q: What is the handling process required for this blowing agent?
A: Though non-toxic and non-flammable, it should be handled with gloves, in well-ventilated spaces, to avoid inhalation of fine powder. Spills should be cleaned immediately to maintain safety standards.
Q: Why is particle size important in blowing agents for EPDM rubber?
A: A fine particle size (10 m) ensures uniform dispersion within the polymer matrix, leading to consistent cell structure and optimal physical properties in the finished foam product.
