[0002] Foam plastic is a common plastic material with the characteristics of light weight, heat insulation and shock absorption, so it is widely used in packaging, filling, protection and some specific application fields. Foam plastic is usually represented by expanded polystyrene (EPS) or polyethylene (EPE). When foam plastic is pre-foamed, gas (usually a foaming agent) is injected into the plastic material to expand it during heating or pressurization to form a foam structure.
