Top Rated Report: Foam Blowing Agents Hydrofluorocarbons, Hydrochlorofluorocarbons Market
The report segments the global market for foam blowing agents into: key product types, chief application areas, and key regional markets. Traditionally, the market has used hydrocarbons (HC), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC), along with some other varieties of products such as hydrazine, CO2, azodicarbonamide, and water as the key foam blowing agents.

However lately, the concerns
regarding high potential of HFC and HCFC products in causing global warming
have accelerated the process of their final phasing-out from major industrial
processes. Governments and international environment protection bodies are
passing legislations to prohibit the use of these substances in industries.
Thus, new blowing agents are being increasingly developed by leading foam blowing
agent companies.
In fact, the rising focus on
developing and manufacturing foam blowing agents with low
global-warming-potential (GWP) is a trend that will have the most significant
effect on the future market for foam blowing agents. Chemical producers with
global reach, such as Honeywell and Arkema have started marketing their
new-formed foam blowing agents with a significantly low GWP. These agents also
possess the potential of high energy performance and environment friendliness
over conventional foam blowing agents such as hydrocarbons, HFC, and HCFC,
factors that will have important effects on the overall market for foam blowing
agents.
Arkema’s Forane 1233zd blowing agent
is known to have a GWP of 7 while Honeywell’s Solstice has a staggeringly low
GWP of 1, both significantly lower than the yesteryears’ popular HFC blowing
agent HFC-245fa with a GWP of 858. DuPont Flourochemical’s low GWP foam blowing
agent Formacel 1100 (featuring a low GWP and reportedly 0 ozone depletion
potential) has also recently received the approval of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency under the Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program.
