Embodiment 1

[0032] A method for foaming polypropylene plastics by low-temperature thermal expansion microspheres, the specific process of preparing foamed polypropylene is as follows:

[0033]With 0.8kg of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate as plasticizer, 1.5kg of coal tar pitch as liquid softener, and 2kg of low-temperature thermally expandable microspheres with an initial foaming temperature not exceeding 120°C (polyethylene Methyl methacrylate as the shell and sodium bicarbonate as the core), added to 10kg of polypropylene powder with a particle size of 20-40μm, added to a high-shear emulsifier, adjusted the rotor speed to 2500r / min, and turned on the drive The motor makes the material evenly mixed to make a viscous system. At the same time, under the action of strong shearing and stirring, air is involved in the system to form a preliminary foam; the resulting preliminary foam is placed in a mold, heated by high-temperature saturated steam at 130°C, and the steam is controlled. The pressur...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of polypropylene foam, and provides a method for foaming polypropylene plastic through low-temperature thermal expansion microspheres. The method comprises the steps that a plasticizer and a liquid state softening agent are used for lowering the softening point of polypropylene, so that the polypropylene and the low temperature thermal expansion microspheres are mixed, high-speed shearing is conducted on the polypropylene and the low temperature thermal expansion microspheres, air is introduced, and initial foam bodies are formed; andthen the thermal expansion microspheres are expanded by heating through saturated steam at a low temperature to produce foaming gas, and the polypropylene foam is prepared. According to the method for foaming the polypropylene plastic through the low-temperature thermal expansion microspheres, compared with the traditional method, cracking of foam walls, gas escaping, foam hole collapse and bubble merging in the foaming process of the polypropylene are reduced, and steam heating energy consumption is small, the recyclable effect is achieved, and environmental protection benefits are good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polypropylene foam preparation and provides a method for foaming polypropylene plastics from low-temperature heat-expandable microspheres. Background technique [0002] Polypropylene (PP, the abbreviation of the initial letter of Poly Propylene in English) is a synthetic resin mass-produced in the 1950s. It is a homopolymer of propylene or propylene α-olefin (ethylene, butene-1, hexylene ene-1) copolymer, its molecule has a linear structure, and its density is 0.89-0.91g / cm3, which is lower than that of low-density polyethylene. Because PP has high relative hardness, small specific gravity, high tensile strength, good transparency, good stress crack resistance and chemical resistance, high heat deflection temperature, and excellent injection molding performance, it can be stretched and oriented at will, It can be blended and modified with other materials, so the application range of PP continues to expan...
