SAFTEC® is an endothermic chemical nucleating and blowing agent for the creation of fine foam structures in thermoplastic injection molding and extrusion applications. SAFTEC® Masterbatches for styrenics contain SAFTEC® powder and a special surfactant package based on a styrenic resin and an SEBS rubber, which improve melt tension and melt flow. It is commonly used in injection molding for the elimination of sink marks, reduction of part warpage, and for minor weight reduction. In extrusion operations, it is used for the creation of fine size cells in direct gas applications. All SAFTEC® powders are made with special surfactants, which result in:
