Supercritical inert gas quantitative supply device

Plasteco's flagship product, the "Supercritical Inert Gas Quantitative Supply Device," has been renewed with a new model. This device provides precise and stable supply of inert gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2), which are essential as blowing agents in foam molding. - The body size has been reduced compared to the previous model, allowing for space-saving installation. It can be placed next to extrusion molding machines and other equipment. - The touch panel on the operation screen has been enlarged from 7 inches to 12 inches. There are fewer screen transitions, allowing for more information to be displayed at once. - Additionally, custom control and display screens can be added according to your preferences. The supply pressure ranges from a small supply volume for small molding machines to a large flow for large molding machines, with standard pressures of 15MPa and 25MPa, and it can also accommodate higher pressure specifications.

■Problems with Conventional Foaming Agents In traditional plastic foaming, foaming agents such as fluorocarbon gases, alternative fluorocarbons, hydrocarbon gases, and chemical foaming agents have been used to generate bubbles during molding. The use of these agents has led to issues such as ozone layer depletion, greenhouse effects, explosiveness, flammability, residue, and difficulties in recycling, prompting increasing regulations in various countries and regions. Currently, there is a movement to replace them with environmentally friendly, safe, and inexpensive inert gases. ■Challenges of Inert Gas Foaming Inert gas foaming faces challenges such as low solubility in resins and difficulty in bubble control, which restrict the materials that can be foamed and make stability difficult. To address these issues, since its establishment in 2007, Plasteco has been engaged in the research and development of environmentally friendly foaming technologies. Plasteco's "technology and equipment specifically for inert gas foaming" precisely controls inert gases like CO2 and N2, enabling ultra-fine, high-magnification, high-performance foaming and molding, providing various benefits for the future of people and the planet. Plasteco's supercritical inert gas foaming technology, which uses supercritical carbon dioxide and nitrogen as foaming agents, offers many advantages over conventional foaming agents in terms of environmental impact, cost, and performance.
