| A closer look at the chemical composition of Azodicarbonamide reveals an interesting insight into the properties of this substance, and explains the reason why it behaves as a blowing agent. Azo is pre-fix for the group -N=N- or a joining state of azote that shares the core azobenzene structure. Azo compounds have a general molecular formula of R-N=N-R', where R is aryl, heteroaryl, -CH=C(OH)- or aliphatic. The extended delocalization of electrons in the benzene and azo groups forms a conjugated system absorbing visible frequencies of light. Aromatic groups provide characteristic colors of red, orange & yellow. This is the basic structure of azo dyes. Aliphatic azo compounds are unstable and the loss of nitrogen gas takes place by simultaneous cleavage of carbon-nitrogen bonds, resulting in carbon-centered radicals. some aliphatic azo compounds are utilized as radical initiators. Azobisisobutyronitrile is a typical initiator of free radical reactions for the production of polymer (polyvinyl chloride, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl alcohol and synthetic fibers) and as a blowing agent for plastics and elastomers. |

| Azodicarbonamide, releasing nitrogen gas, is a basic foaming agent for rubbers & plastics like PVC, EVA, polyolefin, polystyrene products. Azodicarbonamide is also used as a flour aging and bleaching ingredient in cereal flours and dough conditioner in baking breads. It reacts with moist flour as an oxidizing agent. The Pharma grade of Azodicarbonamide molecule is used as an Anti-HIV agent, Anti-Infective Agent, Anti-Retroviral Agent, Antiviral Agent, Immunologic Factor, Immunosuppressive Agent . |
