A blowing agent composition includes a blowing agent consisting of liquified carbon dioxide and 1,1-difluoroethane, or a mixture consisting of liquid carbon dioxide and at least one other liquid or pressure-liquified component selected from the group consisting of ethers with a total of 2 to 4 carbon atoms; ketones with 3 to 5 carbon atoms; alcohols with 1 to 5 carbon atoms; aliphatic hydrocarbons selected from the group consisting of propane, butane, pentane, hexane, heptane; cyclic hydrocarbons with 3 to 12 carbon atoms; fluorohydrocarbons selected from the group consisting of trifluoromethane, 1,1,1-trifluoroethane, 1,1,2-trifluoroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane, 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane, 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane and 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluorobutane; phosphate esters and phosphonate esters containing three C1-C4-alkyl groups optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms. The composition comprises 5 to 50% by weight of liquid carbon dioxide.
