The product, High Quality Azodicarbonamide with the CAS number 123 - 77 - 3, is a well - known chemical compound. Its chemical formula is C₂H₄N₄O₂, and it has a molecular weight of 116.08 g/mol. Azodicarbonamide appears as a yellow to orange - red crystalline powder. It has a relatively high decomposition temperature, usually around 200 - 220°C. This high decomposition temperature makes it suitable for applications where heat stability is required during processing.
In terms of purity, our high - quality Azodicarbonamide typically has a purity of over 99%. It also has a low moisture content, usually less than 0.1%, which ensures its stability and performance in various applications.
One of the primary uses of Azodicarbonamide is as a blowing agent in the plastics and rubber industries. When heated, it decomposes to release nitrogen gas, which creates a foamed structure in the plastic or rubber material. This results in lighter, more insulating, and more flexible products. For example, it is commonly used in the production of PVC foams, which are used in flooring, wall coverings, and automotive interiors.
In the food industry, Azodicarbonamide is used as a flour improver. It helps to strengthen the gluten network in flour, which improves the dough's elasticity and extensibility. This leads to better - structured bread with a higher volume and finer texture.
It also has applications in the textile industry, where it can be used to create a foamed finish on fabrics, providing them with a soft and bulky feel.
When using Azodicarbonamide as a blowing agent in plastics and rubber, it is usually added to the polymer matrix during the mixing process. The recommended dosage depends on the specific polymer and the desired foam density. Generally, a dosage of 0.5 - 3% by weight of the polymer is used. The mixture is then heated to the decomposition temperature of Azodicarbonamide, and the nitrogen gas released forms the foam structure.
In the food industry, Azodicarbonamide is added to flour in very small amounts, usually around 0.0045 - 0.045 grams per kilogram of flour. It should be evenly mixed with the flour before the dough - making process.
When handling Azodicarbonamide, it is important to wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles, to avoid contact with skin and eyes. It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources and oxidizing agents.
Case 1: A plastic manufacturer was producing PVC foam sheets for flooring applications. They added 2% of our high - quality Azodicarbonamide to the PVC resin during the mixing process. After heating the mixture in an extruder, they obtained high - quality PVC foam sheets with uniform cell structure. The foam sheets had good insulation properties and were lightweight, which met the requirements of the flooring market.
Case 2: A bakery used our Azodicarbonamide as a flour improver. They added 0.02 grams per kilogram of flour. The resulting bread had a significantly higher volume compared to bread made without the improver. The texture was finer and more uniform, and the bread had a longer shelf - life. Customers preferred this bread, leading to increased sales for the bakery.
Case 3: A textile company wanted to create a foamed finish on a polyester fabric. They applied a solution containing Azodicarbonamide to the fabric and then heated it. The fabric developed a soft and bulky feel, which made it more attractive for use in high - end clothing.
