<strong>Global</strong> <strong>Foam</strong> <strong>Blowing</strong> <strong>Agents</strong> <strong>Market</strong> <strong>New</strong> <strong>Generation</strong> <strong>Foam</strong> <strong>Blowing</strong> <strong>Agents</strong> <strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>Define</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Future</strong><br />
Increased demand for foam blowing agents across various industries such as refrigeration,<br />
au<strong>to</strong>motive, construction, and manufacturing is expected <strong>to</strong> push <strong>the</strong> growth of <strong>the</strong> global<br />
foam blowing agents market at a CAGR of 4.4% during <strong>the</strong> period from 2013 <strong>to</strong> 2020.<br />
Traditionally, hydrocarbons (HC), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), hydrochloroflourocarbons (HCFC)<br />
along with products such as hydrazine, azodicarbonamide, and CO2 have been used as key<br />
foam blowing agents.<br />
After <strong>the</strong> Montreal Pro<strong>to</strong>col and Kyo<strong>to</strong> Pro<strong>to</strong>col came in<strong>to</strong> force <strong>to</strong> reduce <strong>the</strong> production and<br />
consumption of HC, HFC, and HCFC due <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir negative impact on earth’s ozone layer,<br />
industry players have been looking out for alternative eco-friendly foam blowing agents.<br />

The environmental impact of substitute foam blowing agents is judged by <strong>the</strong>ir ozone<br />
depletion potential (ODP), and global warming potential (GWP).<br />
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) evaluates and lists <strong>the</strong> various substitute<br />
foam blowing agents under its Significant <strong>New</strong> Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program. Taking cue<br />
from <strong>the</strong> EPA’s list of substitute foam blowing agents, manufacturers are now focusing on<br />
developing foam blowing agents with low GWP.<br />
Key Industry Players Developing <strong>Foam</strong> <strong>Blowing</strong> <strong>Agents</strong> with Lower GWP<br />
Contributing <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> cause of reducing ozone depletion and global warming, Honeywell<br />
International has developed Solstice Liquid <strong>Blowing</strong> Agent (LBA), which is <strong>the</strong> latest foam<br />
blowing agent technology.
The nonflammable and cost-effective blowing agent has a GWP of 1, which is way lower than<br />
that of <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r commonly used HFCs such as cyclopentane, HFC-245fa, HFC-365mfc, and<br />
methyl formate.<br />
The product is a fourth-generation foam blowing agent developed by <strong>the</strong> company and has<br />
been included in <strong>the</strong> SNAP list as a suitable alternative in all foam applications.<br />
France’s leading chemicals manufacturer, Arkema, has developed <strong>the</strong> liquid blowing agent<br />
Forane 1233zd with a GWP of 7, which outperforms HFCs in terms of energy efficiency and<br />
vapor pressure. Similarly, DuPont Chemicals & Fluoroproducts has introduced Formacel 1100<br />
as a next-generation foam expansion agent. Formacel 1100 has a GWP of 2 and a zero ODP.<br />

Developing Nations Adopting Low-GWP Alternatives<br />
<strong>Foam</strong> blowing agents are majorly used in <strong>the</strong> building and construction industry.<br />
It was estimated by <strong>the</strong> U.S. EPA that <strong>the</strong> overall HFC consumption in <strong>the</strong> construction foams<br />
sec<strong>to</strong>r was around 38 million metric <strong>to</strong>ns of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2010. Developed<br />
countries held a majority share in <strong>the</strong> <strong>to</strong>tal HFC consumption in 2010.<br />
As industry players develop low-GWP alternatives, it is expected that HFCs and HCFCs will be<br />
gradually phased out of <strong>the</strong> market. In developing economies, efforts have been taken <strong>to</strong><br />
increase <strong>the</strong> adoption of low-GWP alternatives.<br />
In Brazil, methylal is being used for <strong>the</strong> production of spray, panels, block, and pipe-in-pipe<br />
foam. Usage of super-critical CO2 in manufacturing of spray foam is being encouraged in<br />
Colombia. With growing awareness about <strong>the</strong> adverse impacts of global warming and industry<br />
players coming up with eco-friendly alternatives, <strong>the</strong> carbon footprint of <strong>the</strong> foam blowing<br />
agents market is expected <strong>to</strong> decrease in <strong>the</strong> near future.<br />

Hydrogen cyanide is also known as prussic acid. Hydrogen cyanide is an inorganic compound<br />
that is colorless in nature. Hydrogen cyanide is extremely poisonous liquid which boils at <strong>the</strong><br />
slightly above room temperature.<br />
Hydrogen cyanide is weakly acidic and partially ionizes in <strong>the</strong> water solutions <strong>to</strong> form cyanide<br />
ions. Hydrogen cyanide has a faint, bitter, almond like smell that sometimes is undetected.<br />
Hydrogen cyanide is usually manufactured in large quantities at an industrial scale.<br />
Hydrogen cyanide is an essential and highly valuable precursor for <strong>the</strong> manufacturing of a<br />
range of chemical compounds from polymers <strong>to</strong> that of pharmaceuticals. Hydrogen cyanide is<br />
included among <strong>the</strong> chemical welfare (CW) list of chemicals that are known <strong>to</strong> be poisonous in<br />
nature.<br />
