Cesa™ Nucleant Additives are mainly used to clarify PP resin. Chemical foaming agents, materials that generate gas upon decomposition, also act as nucleating agents. The fine-grain spherulite structure of ingredients incorporated in Hydrocerol™ chemical foaming agents make it an ideal nucleating agent in direct gassed PS and polyolefin foams.

If a foaming agent is required (to produce foamed parts), a mechanical shut-off nozzle must be used to control foaming activity and to prevent drooling. Polypropylene (PP) carriers are recommended for the harder SEBS formulations PP carrier is not recommended for softer grades, as the compound hardness will be affected.
