Why choose to use TSH foaming agents on PVC plastics

2025-07-08
In today's booming plastics industry, PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) plastics occupy an important position in many fields such as construction, automotive, packaging and so on due to its excellent mechanical properties, chemical resistance and wide applicability. As competition in the industry intensifies and the need for sustainable development rises, optimizing the performance and cost control of PVC plastic products has become a focus of attention for companies, and foaming is one of the key technologies to achieve this goal. So why do we choose TSH blowing agents for PVC plastic products?
 

TSH blowing agent


The foaming principle of TSH blowing agents is based on their sensitivity to temperature during PVC processing. When the PVC raw material is heated to a specific temperature range in the extruder or injection molding machine, the TSH blowing agent starts to decompose, releasing gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen. These gases form tiny bubbles in the molten PVC resin, which expand and solidify as the process progresses, ultimately forming a uniform foam structure inside the product. Compared to conventional blowing agents, TSH blowing agents have a more precise temperature range for decomposition, which allows for better control of the timing of foaming and the foam pattern during processing, and prevents defects in the product caused by foaming too early or too late.



TSH blowing agents are not a single substance, but rather a class of specially formulated blowing agent systems that typically contain organic or inorganic compounds as their main components, with some products having modifying additives to optimize performance. For example, some TSH blowing agents are based on azodicarbonamide derivatives, with the introduction of specific activators and stabilizers to provide unique performance advantages in PVC processing.
 

6 Core Benefits of Choosing TSH Foam Agent

 

Dramatic Improvement in Product Performance


By using Shuntai's TSH blowing agent, PVC plastic products can be significantly lightweighted without sacrificing strength. Typically, the density of PVC products utilizing TSH blowing agents can be reduced by 10% - 30% while maintaining high levels of tensile and impact strength. This lightweight property is particularly important in the construction and automotive sectors, where the reduced weight of foamed PVC pipes not only reduces transportation and installation costs, but also reduces the overall load on the building or vehicle to a certain extent.

In addition, the homogeneous foam structure formed by the TSH blowing agent gives PVC products excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties. In the construction industry, foamed PVC panels are used for insulated wall panels and acoustic ceilings, while in automotive manufacturing, foamed PVC interior parts can effectively reduce interior noise and improve ride comfort.
 

Dramatically improve process efficiency


TSH blowing agent excels in high-speed production lines due to its precise temperature control properties. Its narrow decomposition temperature range ensures that the foaming process remains stable during continuous production, avoiding product quality fluctuations due to uneven foaming. At the same time, TSH blowing agent reduces the viscosity of the PVC melt, resulting in a smoother flow of material through the mold and reduced energy consumption during processing. In addition, since TSH blowing agent does not contain corrosive components, it does not cause damage to the processing equipment during the process, prolonging the service life of molds and machines, and further reducing the maintenance costs of the enterprise's equipment.Shuntai, as a manufacturer of chemical blowing agents with 16 years of experience in the production of chemical blowing agents, has been continuously optimizing the performance of TSH blowing agent in the process of research and development of blowing agents to provide a strong guarantee for the improvement of the production efficiency of the enterprises.

Outstanding environmental and safety performance


As environmental regulations are becoming increasingly stringent, companies are demanding higher levels of environmental protection in their production processes. Shuntai's TSH blowing agents have extremely low emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during processing, which meets environmental standards, such as those of the European Union. At the same time, the decomposition gases and residues are non-toxic and non-hazardous, which makes PVC products made with TSH blowing agents safe for use in packaging, medical devices, and other safety-critical applications, and supports the company's market expansion.
 

Cost optimization


Although the unit price of TSH blowing agents may be slightly higher than that of some conventional blowing agents, the comprehensive cost advantages they offer cannot be ignored. On the one hand, the light weight achieved through foaming directly reduces the amount of PVC raw materials used; on the other hand, the stable foaming quality significantly reduces the scrap rate and improves production efficiency. In addition, due to the reduction of equipment maintenance costs, the enterprise can realize significant cost savings in the long-term production process.
