[0002] Foaming agent is a substance that makes the object material pore-forming. It can be divided into three categories: chemical foaming agent, physical foaming agent and surfactant. In the process of producing foaming agent for carbon dioxide extruded board, a variety of raw materials are involved, and a variety of different raw materials need to be mixed and stirred during processing. CO2 and N2 mixed foaming agent is a physical foaming agent used in the processing of plastics, rubber and other materials. It generates bubbles by mixing carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2), and then forms a microporous structure inside the material to improve the performance of the material. This foaming agent has been widely used in many fields due to its advantages such as environmental friendliness, non-toxicity and cost-effectiveness. Existing foaming agent mixing equipment generally adopts a relatively sealed structure, leaving only a feed port and a discharge port. The operation of connecting external CO2 and N2 is relatively cumbersome, and the sealing is difficult to ensure. After the foaming agent mixing equipment finishes mixing and stirring the foaming agent, the foaming agent will be discharged, but there will still be residual foaming agent inside the foaming agent mixing equipment, which makes it impossible to discharge, affecting the quality of subsequent mixing of the foaming agent. To this end, a mixing device for mixing CO2 and N2 as a mixed foaming agent is proposed. Utility Model Content
