                                              gents and cleaning products.

 

Blowing Agents 

Chemical blowing agents are organic or inorganic additives used for the manufacture of plastic foam products.

 

 

Plasticizers 

Plasticizers are substances, mainly esters, which are added to a polymer in order to improve its workability, flexibility and extensibility.

 

 

Flame Retardants 

Flame retardants are additives mixed into polymer compounds when flame retardant properties are specified for complying with fire regulations. They are typically added to polyurethane foams, phenolic resins, nitrile rubbers and various thermoplastics.
