  • Publication number: 20240391144
    Abstract: Disclosed are a supercritical in-mold foam forming device with a pretreatment function and a foaming method thereof. The supercritical in-mold foam forming device comprises a high-pressure reactor. A safety valve is disposed at the top of the high-pressure reactor and seals the top of the high-pressure reactor. A driving member used for driving is mounted in the middle of the top of the high-pressure reactor through bolts. An intra-mold temperature control module is disposed in a foaming mold, two groups of uniform heating plates are controlled be powered on synchronously to generate heat, and a temperature gradient is formed in a graphite backing plate by controlling the difference in proportion of output power.

  • Patent number: 11318647
    Abstract: A method of microcellular foam molding an article is provided with filling a mold with a polyolefin compound; forming crosslinks in the mold to obtain a crosslinked mold; dissolving a supercritical fluid into the crosslinked mold under a predetermined pressure and at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined period of time to obtain a second mold configured to allow the supercritical fluid to effuse through; and heating the second mold at a second predetermine temperature for a predetermined foaming time until a foamed article is finished in the second mold. A second embodiment involves using elastomers as foaming materials is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20200002499
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for physically foaming a polymer material and a foamed article. The method for physically foaming a polymer material comprises: (1) making a thermoplastic elastomer or a polyolefin material into a blank with an injector, an extruder, or a molding press; (2) subjecting the polyolefin blank to a crosslinking reaction to obtain a crosslinked polyolefin blank; (3) subjecting the thermoplastic elastomer blank or the crosslinked polyolefin blank to a high pressure impregnation with a supercritical fluid in an autoclave, then releasing the pressure to a normal pressure to obtain a supercritical fluid-impregnated blank; and (4) placing the supercritical fluid-impregnated blank into an end-product mold to perform an 1:1 in-mold foaming to obtain a finished foam article.
