Overview
CELOGEN® AZ150 is a chemical foaming agent that produces a fine, uniform, closed cell structure. It has a relatively high decomposition temperature and small particle size.
CELOGEN® AZ150 can be catalyzed by a variety of chemicals: strong activators like zinc oxide, zinc stearate, and ACTICELL® U; moderate activators like barium stearate, calcium stearate, citric acid, and triethanolamine; or weak activators like adipic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, and calcium oxide.
