Silicone Blowing Agent for Silicone Rubber Foaming Applications

Silicone Blowing Agent powder for silicone rubber foaming applications
Product Overview

Silicone Blowing Agent is a specialty chemical blowing agent used in silicone rubber formulations to generate gas during heat processing and create cellular or sponge structures. It is commonly supplied as a white to pale yellow powder and is used where controlled low-temperature decomposition is required. Upon activation, the material releases nitrogen gas, assisting in the formation of expanded silicone rubber products.

This product is used in molded, extruded, and cured silicone compounds where lightweight or compressible foam structures are required. It is typically selected for formulations where foaming and curing balance is important during processing. Typical use sectors include seals, gaskets, insulation components, cushioning profiles, and technical silicone sponge parts.

Users should determine compatibility with specific silicone polymers, fillers, curing systems, and process temperatures before production use. Technical datasheet is available on request.
