Overview
CELOGEN® AZ9370 is a chemical foaming agent that produces a fine, uniform, closed-cell structure. It has a relatively high decomposition temperature and moderate particle size, similar to CELOGEN® AZ150 but with a larger particle size.
CELOGEN® AZ9370 can be catalyzed by a variety of chemicals: strong activators, such as zinc oxide, zinc stearate, and ACTICELL® U; moderate activators, such as barium stearate, calcium stearate, citric acid, and triethanolamine; and weak activators, such as adipic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, and calcium oxide.
