Cas No. 123-77-3 EC No. 204-650-8 UN No. 3242
Azodicarbonamide (AC or ADCA) is the most popular chemical blowing agent. Generally, AC is
orange to pale yellow, crystalline solid with a decomposition temperature in air of 201~205℃.
Unlike a number of other chemical blowing agent, AC is selfextinguishing when flame is removed. The decomposition
residues are odorless, non-toxic, non-coloring and non-straining.
The particle size and distribution can be controlled with widely different ranges. The particle size and distribution is
one of the significant factors.
