Nucleation additives

Microcell foam extrusion systems from Promix are used for a wide variety of applications and for almost all polymers. Thanks to the production of very homogeneous microcellular foam structures, high-quality foam products with very low densities and excellent mechanical properties can be produced. Physical foaming can reduce material consumption and thus costs by an average of 20%. This not only saves money but also has a positive impact on the environment. Promix Foam extrusion systems set standards in the production of microcellular foam products with very homogeneous cell structure and high process consistency. The systems operate with environmentally friendly blowing fluids nitrogen or CO2 and are easy to integrate into existing or new extrusion lines. Depending on the application, density reductions of 5 to over 70 % can be achieved.The technology can be used for packaging films, sheets, foam core and corrugated pipes as wellas profiles, cable sheating, blow molds and blown films.

Promix supplies key components to optimize the production of light foams such as XPS insulation boards, XPET construction boards, XPE foam films, etc. Thanks to the improved cell structure, the foam density can be further reduced, and the throughput of the plant increased, resulting in significant cost savings in production. Replacement of iso-butane for the sake of the environment Iso-butane and other hydrocarbons are excellent blowing agents for high expansion foam production.However, they are also highly harmful to the environment and highly flammable, which increases the production risk. Promix gas dosing stations in combination with other retrofittable process engineering components enable at least a partial switch to the non-flammable and environmentally neutral gases CO2 and nitrogen.

Insufficient surface quality, long cooling times, uneven thickness tolerances or other quality problems often limit maximum production output. Promix melt blenders eliminate these limitations sustainably and lead to significant cost savings. Would you like to optimize your extrusion process? Improved melt homogeneity and a more uniform melt temperature create tighter thickness tolerances and better surface quality. And quite often, it can also increase production throughput. Promix offers you highly effective static mixers and melt blenders at low investment costs. They are supplied ready for installation, including heater bands and holes for pressure and temperature sensors. The melt blenders are usually installed downstream of the screen changer & gear pump, and upstream of the die. The very short installation length allows easy retrofitting in existing extrusion lines.
