| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A new foam injection molding technology was developed to produce microcellular foams without using supercritical fluid pump units. In this technology, physical blowing agents (PBA), such as nitrogen (N2), carbon dioxide (CO2) and compressed air (Air) are delivered directly from their gas cylinders into the molten polymer through a venting vessel, which is equipped at close to the screw tip. The amount of gas delivered into the molten polymer is controlled by the secondary reducing pressure of the reducing valve of the gas cylinder and the outlet (back) pressure of the venting vessel.
Microcellular polypropylene foams were successfully prepared using the developed foam injection molding technology with 2-6 MPa CO2, 2-8 MPa N2 or 4-8 MPa Air.
