Azodicarbonamide (ADC) is a cornerstone chemical blowing agent, indispensable for manufacturing a vast array of foamed plastic and rubber products. At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., a leading ADC manufacturer and supplier in China, we see firsthand the incredible versatility of this compound. This article delves into the key applications where ADC plays a critical role, providing procurement professionals and R&D scientists with insights into its extensive uses.

The primary function of Azodicarbonamide is to decompose thermally, releasing gases that create a cellular structure within polymers. This foaming process imparts desirable properties such as reduced density, enhanced cushioning, improved thermal and acoustic insulation, and increased flexibility. When you choose to buy ADC from a reputable supplier like us, you ensure consistent performance across these diverse applications.

Key application areas for Azodicarbonamide include:

  • Footwear: ADC is extensively used in the production of foamed soles for athletic shoes, casual footwear, and sandals. It helps create lightweight, resilient, and comfortable cushioning, often using materials like EVA, PVC, and rubber. Our fine particle size ADC grades are particularly effective for achieving the desired smooth finish and fine cell structure in shoe components.
  • Insulation Materials: In construction and industrial applications, foamed plastics produced with ADC provide excellent thermal and acoustic insulation. This includes foamed PVC, PE, and PP used in pipes, boards, and sheets for building insulation and energy efficiency.
  • Artificial Leather and Textiles: ADC is crucial in manufacturing artificial leather and PVC-coated fabrics. It creates a soft, flexible, and breathable layer that mimics the feel and appearance of real leather. The controlled gas release ensures a uniform foam layer, enhancing the tactile properties and visual appeal. We offer specialized ADC grades suitable for this demanding application.
  • Automotive Components: Lightweighting is a major trend in the automotive industry. ADC-foamed plastics and rubbers are used for interior components such as dashboards, headliners, and door panels to reduce vehicle weight, improve fuel efficiency, and enhance passenger comfort through better sound dampening.
  • Flooring and Wall Coverings: Foamed PVC and other polymers using ADC are common in vinyl flooring and wall coverings, providing cushioning, durability, and ease of installation. The controlled foaming contributes to the material’s resilience and comfort underfoot.
  • Packaging: In certain packaging applications, particularly for protecting fragile goods, foamed plastics generated with ADC offer excellent shock absorption and protective cushioning.
