SAFOAM FPN3-40 is commonly used to create a fine cell structure for medium and low-density foam applications. SAFOAM FPN3-40 can be used in various applications in conjunction with gas counter-pressure and gas assist molding technologies. The most common application is in low-density polystyrene foam extrusion for very smooth surfaces.

SAFOAM FPN3-40 offers the following benefits:

  • Creates a standard closed-cell foam structure
  • Improves melt flow & dispersion in thermoplastics
  • Improves melt strength
  • In-line paintable
  • Improves cycle time in injection molding
  • Increases extrusion output rate
  • Achieves significant weight reduction
  • Creates white foams
  • Enhances surface appearance
  • Eliminates pin holes
  • FDA approved – safe for food contact
  • pH balanced and buffered formula
  • Improves process economics
  • Reduces VOC's of direct gas polystyrene extrusion
  • Improves post-expansion in direct gas polystyrene
  • Improves flex and elongation and reduces brittleness

FPN3-40 is compatible with a variety of resins mainly PS, ABS, HIPS, and PP. Request your sample today and speak with our technical department on running procedures.
