Sole in the footwear usually modified with foaming agent on the polymer resin to improve the lightweightness and crush-cushion effect. In this study, we investigated rheological properties for polymer resin filled with the different type and concentration of foaming agent, capsule type foaming agent and organo-chemical foaming agent, under the time sweep test. Curing times of each polymer resin with different kind of foaming agent are delayed than reference material (epoxy resin with curing agent). In case of adding capsule type foaming agent, however, there is appropriate concentration to reduce the curing time, relatively. When foaming agent is activated, foaming force inflates the sample in contrast to condensation force of curing and then axial normal force develop to the (+) direction. Interestingly, by increase concentration of foaming agent, there is a specific point to break down the axial normal force development. The reason for this phenomenon is that coalescence of foams induce the blocking of axial normal force development.

This study analyzes the properties of foam according to the concentration of vegetable foaming agent that is used in traditional and mixed foaming agent of developing stage, and confirms how the foams influence foamed concrete by searching for properties of foamed concrete according to replacing ratio of vegetable foaming agent and mixed foaming agent. This is for the purpose of providing basic data for the use of foamed concrete through improvement on the problem such as unstability, falling in fluidity and the strength of existed foaming agent.

To reduce the weight of the engineering plastic Nylon 6 resin, two high-temperature foaming agents, p-toluenesulfonyl semicarbazide (PTSS) and 5-phenyltetrazole (5-PT) (0-10 phr), were added and foamed without other additives. We investigated the effects of the foaming agent type and content on the foam density (g/cm³) and percent weight reduction rate of the Nylon 6 foam, and 5-PT exhibited better foaming performance than PTSS. In the case of 5-PT, the weight reduction rate was above 36% when the blowing agent content was 1.5 phr or higher, indicating that 5-PT is an effective blowing agent for reducing the Nylon 6 foam weight. Additionally, we studied the effect of the nucleating agent Talc content (0-0.4 phr) on Nylon 6 foaming, and the nucleating agent Talc considerably reduced foaming.

Generally, mixed materials of LDPE, EVA and foaming agent are manufactured by crosslinking foaming or chemical foaming process. Above materials were used in a microcellular foaming injection molding process. Influence of each factor such as injection type, temperature of barrel, rate of mixed materials and contents of foaming agent was estimated by DOE(Design of Experiments). As a result of experiments, injection type and rate of LDPE, EVA have an influence on foaming rate. This data can be used in field of application of LDPE and EVA.

In this study, the effect of pressure type and foaming agent on the microstructural change of Al foam produced by powder compact processing was investigated. Better foaming characteristic is easily obtained from extrusion process with strong plastic deformation and preheating than that by uniaxial pressing with preheating. In current powder compact foaming process using TiH2/MgH2 mixture as a foaming agent, a temperature of 670℃ and addition of 30% MgH2 in TiH2 foaming agent was chosen as the most suitable foaming condition. The aluminum (Al) foams with maximum porosity of around 70%, relatively regular pore size and distribution were successfully produced by means of the powder metallurgy method and extrusion process.

This study was performed to obtain the basic data which can be applied to use of foaming mortars. The results obtained were Summarized as follows; 1.At the mixing ratio of 1:1, the highest bulk densities were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was decreased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. The decreasing rates of bulk densities were increased in richer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. 2.The bulk densities were decreased up to 38.8-55.9% by mix-foaming type and 9.7-23.6% by pre-foamed type than cement mortar. 3.At the mixing ratio of 1:1, the lowest absorption rates were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was increased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. The increasing rates of absorption rates were increased in richer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. 4.Absorption rates when immersed in 72hours were showed up tp 3.41-5.85 times by mix-foaming type and 1.05- 1.S5times by pre -foamed type than cement mortar, it was significantly higher at the early stage of immersed time than cement mortar. 5.The correlations between bulk density and absorption rate were highly singnificant, respectively. The multiple regression equations of bulk density and absorption rate were computed depending on a fuction of mixing ratio and addition of foaming agent. it was highly significant respectively.

This literature study is focused on the improvement of lightweight concrete in perspective of foaming agent. Lightweight concrete is the cured concrete as putting required amount of foaming agent to slurry which is a mixture of a certain amount of cement, sand, and water. It has lower density than general concrete, because foaming agent disintegrates numerous bubbles evenly and independently. Thus, it is capable of lightening the weight and great for sound absorption and insulation, In foreign countries, studies for structural lightweight concrete mainly of tunnel grouting and weight lightening of heavy structures are going along actively. Domestically, exterior panel and ALC blocks are alternatively used for flooring. Therefore, this research consider improvement of lightweight concrete in perspective of foaming agent with foundation study.

Pre-foaming, one of the manufacturing way of foamed concrete, is influenced by foaming agent. When the foaming agent diluted with water, surface tension and viscosity are varied. Therefore, this study is reviewing the surface tension, viscosity and unit weight of foam by experimental factor such as foaming agent types(AES, AOS, VS FP) and foam agent dilution concentration (1, 3, 5%) and temperature of materials (5, 10, 20℃). As an expeimental result, the surface tension and viscosity slightly increased with increasing concentrations. Meanwhile, when increasing temperature, the viscosity has decreased. FP produce relatively stable foams only in case 3% or more, which produce unstable foams containing large amount of water content by decreasing only insignificant surface tension when diluted at concentration of 1%.

Foaming method is presented the preparation of porous materials from high-concentrated kaolin silica and flyash slurries. The slurries were foamed dried and sintered respectively. The porosity of sintered ma-terials was about 70-75% Mean pore-size was the range of 70-150$\mu\textrm{m}$ and pore structure was continuous Sodium lauryl sulfate anionic surfactant was used as a foaming agent. The foaming ability and the froth sta-bility were increased with increasing the concentration of the foaming agent. But the size of the constituent bubble of froth after foaming process was not affected by the concentration of the foaming agent. These results showed that the mean pore-size of sintered materials was closely related to the froth stability which is related to the change of bubble-size during the drying process.

선발포 방식을 통해 제조되는 기포 콘크리트에서 기포는 밀도, 강도, 공극 등의 물리적 특성에 영향을 끼치는 주요인이다. 기포 콘크리트에 대한 연구가 꾸준하게 진행되었지만, 기포 자체의 특성에 관한 연구는 화학적인 분야를 제외하고는 거의 없는 실정이다. 그러므로 용도에 적합한 기포 콘크리트를 제조하기 위해서는 기포의 성상에 대한 연구가 필수적으로 선행되어야 한다. 기포 콘크리트의 제조에서 기포를 유효하게 이용하기 위해서는 기포의 특성을 평가해야만 한다. 이 연구에서는 기포의 특성을 알아보기 위해 기포제 종류 및 농도 변화에 따른 기포의 특성에 관한 검토를 수행하였다. 기포의 특성을 알아보기 위해 사용한 기포제는 계면활성제계, 수지비누계, 단백질계 기포제를 사용하였고 기포제의 농도는 기포제 종류에 따라 0.05~13% 범위로 설정하였다. 측정 항목은 발포율, 기포 용적, 수용액 용적, 기포 크기 및 분포를 측정하였다. 분석 결과, 기포제 종류와는 상관없이 기포제 농도가 높을수록 발포율은 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, 기포제 농도는 기포, 수용액 용적 변화, 기포 크기 분포에도 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났다. 기포의 안정성 측면에서 단백질계가 계면활성제, 수지비누계 보다 높은 안정성을 나타냈다. 기포의 형상에서는 계면활성제계, 수지 비누계는 다각형의 기포를, 단백질계는 구형의 기포를 형성하였다.
