Product Description
name.Azodicarbonamide is a synthetic chemical compound. It appears as a yellow-to-orange crystalline solid under ambient temperature conditions. It is widely applied as a blowing agent in the rubber and plastics industry to foam various polymers such as polyvinyl chloride, polyolefins, natural rubber and synthetic rubber. Furthermore, it is employed within the food industry as an additive. Typical uses include acting as a flour bleaching and maturing agent in grain processing, as well as a dough conditioner for bread production.

Product Application
Azodicarbonamide is a yellow to orange-red crystalline powder and practically insoluble in water. It is widely utilized for flour treatment to optimize dough processability and yield baked goods with larger volume and lighter texture. It acts as a dough conditioner within bread flour and baking formulas, and can be compounded with oxidizing agents including potassium bromate, with the typical dosage maintained below 45 ppm.
During wheat flour processing, azodicarbonamide improves the physical characteristics of dough and boosts overall baking performance. It balances oxidizing and reducing substances in flour treatment systems. Apart from food applications, it serves as a blowing and foaming agent for plastics, as well as a maturation and bleaching agent for cereal flours.
