Azodicarbonamide, is also called ADCA, ADA, or azo(bis)formamide, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C2H4O2N4.^[1] It is a yellow, odorless, and crystalline powder.

Synthesis

It is prepared in two steps via treatment of urea with hydrazine to form biurea, as described in this idealized equation:

2 OC(NH2)2 + N2H4 → H2NC(O)-N(H)-N(H)-C(O)NH2 + 2 NH3

Oxidation with chlorine or chromic acid yields azodicarbonamide:

H2NC(O)-N(H)-N(H)-C(O)NH2 + Cl2 → H2NC(O)-N=N-C(O)NH2 + 2 HCl

Application as Blowing agent

The principal use of azodicarbonamide is in the production of foamed plastics as a blowing agent. The thermal decomposition of azodicarbonamide results in the evolution of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and ammonia gases, which are trapped in the polymer as bubbles to form a foamed article.^[2]

Azodicarbonamide is used in plastics, synthetic leather, and other industries and can be pure or modified. Modification affects the reaction temperatures. Pure azodicarbonamide generally reacts around 200 °C. In the plastic, leather, and other industries, modified azodicarbonamide (average decomposition temperature 170 °C) contains additives that accelerate the reaction or react at lower temperatures.^[2]

Sinno’s AC series can be modified to be suitable to almost all of the rubbers and plastics by additives like activators. AC series is non-toxic and self-extinguishing material and has relatively high decomposition temperature and evolves a large gas volume. Therefore they can be used more safely than any other colorless and it can produce white, micro-cellular structures.
