The document discusses alternatives to HCFC blowing agents for foam production. It summarizes mature technologies like hydrocarbons, HFCs, and CO2 that have limitations regarding cost, safety, or environmental impact. Emerging technologies are also presented, such as methyl formate, HFOs, and saturated HFCs that offer some improvements but require further development and commercialization. The overall message is an urgent need to phase out HCFCs due to environmental concerns while pursuing the most viable and sustainable alternative blowing agent options.

Zero ODS Low GWS Eliminate HCFC with alternate blowing agents Processing issues and challenges for the foam sector Presented by Arun K Singh
Our Social Responsibilities Save Ozone layer Save Environment by Using ZERO ODS LOW GWS Blowing agents
Objectives Phase out production & consumption of HCFC in accordance to the Protocol Phase out schedule Stage 1 Achieving Montreal protocol target stage 1 establishing base line consumption respectively @ 10% reduction of baseline volumes from 2015 Phase out production and consumption of HCFC in accordance to the protocol total phase out schedule 2030 Stage II Adhere to Stage II Protocol reduction target 2020 -2025 and total phase out 2030 with a allowance on servicing @ 2.5% from 2030 to 2040 Phase out HCFC like OSD/GWS subsistence with the alternate ZERO ODS/LOW GWS
