  • Publication number: 20080295958
    Abstract: A polyolefin resin drawn sheet 4 is laminated on at least one face of a sheet-form core material 6 having a density of 30 to 300 kgf/m3. At this time, a sheet or film 5 made of a bonding synthetic resin or rubber having a flow starting temperature lower than the thermal deformation temperature of the core material 6 and the melting point of the drawn sheet 4 is interposed between the core material 6 and the drawn sheet 4. The resultant stack product is heated to not less than the flow starting temperature of the synthetic resin or the rubber and not more than the thermal deformation temperature of the core material 6 and the melting point of the drawn sheet 4. At the same time of or after the heating, the stack product is pressed to apply a compression strain of 0.01 to 10% to the core material 6.

  • Patent number: 6613172
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a composite foam having a high compressive strength. A polyolefin resin is melted and kneaded with a modifying monomer to react them. A thermally decomposable chemical foaming agent is added to the obtained modified resin, and the mixture is kneaded. The obtained foamable resin composition is shaped into a sheet. A sheet-like facing material (3) having a strength sufficient to inhibit the foamable sheet from expanding in in-plane directions during thermal foaming is laminated on at least one side of the foamable sheet. The obtained foamable composite sheet is thermally foamed to produce a composite foam (1) having rugby-ball-shaped cells (2) oriented in the direction of the sheet thickness.

  • Patent number: 6090479
    Abstract: A resin foamed product is formed of a resin, and closed cells dispersed in the resin. The resin with the closed cells therein has a shape-recoverable property at an ambient temperature, a closed cell rate higher than 30% and a compression permanent set lower than 10%. Thus, when contraction takes place in the resin with the closed cells, after a predetermined time has passed without providing an outer stimulation to the resin, a shape of the resin foamed product formed of the resin with the closed cells is automatically recovered at least in one direction without equally expanding in all directions.
