Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in the method of forming the base material described in Patent Document 1, there is a problem of scattering of microcapsules whose specific gravity becomes smaller after thermal expansion (for example, after thermal expansion, the specific gravity becomes about 1 / 50 of that before thermal expansion).
In addition, in the production method described in Patent Document 2, the mesh is produced by papermaking, but in this production method, a device with a complicated structure is required, and the operation and process are also very complicated.
In addition, since an expensive foam solution prepared by mixing a surfactant and dispersing reinforcing fibers, heat-expandable powder, etc. is used, it is not preferable in terms of cost.

Embodiment 1

[0071] Example 1 (Manufacture of Thermally Expandable Base Material for Vehicle Interior)

[0072] (1) Production of glass fiber mat (inorganic fiber mat)

[0073] Cut the glass fiber wound into a roving shape into a predetermined length, open it with a fiber opening drum to make a cotton-like glass fiber, place the glass fiber in the air flow, and make it the weight per unit area (fiber density) 280g / m 2 Floating and stacking in the same way to make a glass fiber mat with a thickness of 4.1mm.

[0074] (2) Preparation of mixed emulsion

[0075] 300 liters of water and 6 liters of surfactant were put into a container with a capacity of 600 liters, and stirred and mixed. Afterwards, 84 liters of dispersions containing 45.7 mass % of high-density polyethylene powder (the fusing point of high-density polyethylene is 147 DEG C) emulsion, 30 liters of dispersions containing 20.5 mass % of heat-expandable microcapsules (thermal expansion start temperature) in this container 178°...

Embodiment 2

[0078] Example 2 (base material for vehicle interior)

[0079] The thermally expandable base material for vehicle interior produced in Example 1 was left to stand in a heating furnace whose temperature was adjusted to 230° C. for 90 seconds. Thereby, the surface temperature of the heat-expandable base material for vehicle interior became 195° C. (17° C. higher than the thermal expansion start temperature of the heat-expandable microcapsules), and the heat-expandable microcapsules were thermally expanded. Afterwards, the heat-expandable base material for vehicle interior was cooled by a cold press to manufacture a base material for vehicle interior with a thickness of 8 mm. The gap between the cooling plates of the above-mentioned cold press was 8 mm, and water circulated inside the cooling plates, and the cooling plate was cooled. The temperature of the press was set at 18°C.

Abstract

A process for producing a heat-expandable base for interior vehicular trim is provided which is for use in producing an interior vehicular trim material which is lightweight and has sufficient sound-absorbing properties, high rigidity, etc. Also provided is a process for producing a base for interior vehicular trim. The process for producing a heat-expandable base for interior vehicular trim is characterized by mixing an emulsion of a synthetic resin with an emulsion of heat-expandable microcapsules and an emulsion of a resinous adhesive, infiltrating the emulsion mixture into an inorganic fibrous mat, thereafter drying the mat at a temperature in a range of temperatures lower than the heat expansion initiation temperature of the microcapsules, subsequently heating the mat at a temperature in a range of temperatures at which the synthetic resin powder melts and which are lower than the heat expansion initiation temperature of the microcapsules, hot-pressing the mat, and then cooling the mat. The process for producing a base for interior vehicular trim is characterized by heating the heat-expandable base for interior vehicular trim at a temperature exceeding the heat expansion initiation temperature of the microcapsules and then cooling the base.
