A study on the effect of twice foaming process on microcellular foamed plastics
재발포가 MCPs에 미치는 영향
Abstract
According to the industrialization the using of polymers is increased by their mechanical or commercial demands. At now, the using of polymers is become bigger and bigger than yet. On the other words, our whole life is covered by the polymers. Due to the extended polymer using, the material cost is higher and higher. Therefore, the people used the polymer foaming process using the gas. The polymer foaming using the pentane or butane gas is prohibited by the government cause of the explosiveness and non-environmental friendly. Therefore, the members of MIT invented the Micro-cellular Polymer Foaming in 1980. The Micro-cellular Polymers has many cells in the polymer matrix. By compare between non-foamed polymers, the Micro-cellular Polymers have low material cost, soundproof and shock less. The purpose of this study is to study the twice foamed polymer by batch process. To know the reaction by step of microcellular foaming process, we measure the density of polymer. And to viewing the cell morphology, we used the scanning electron microscopy(SEM).
