AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Foamed sheets containing polyester resin have high rigidity, making it difficult to impart a desired shape through thermoforming and are prone to breaking.

Method used

A foamed sheet is developed by dispersing inorganic particles containing alkaline earth metal carbonate in a polyester resin, with a residual alkaline earth metal element content of 0.2 to 2% by weight per unit area, and satisfying a specific formula to achieve a thickness deviation rate of 10% or less.

Benefits of technology

The resulting foamed sheet exhibits reduced cell size and density, a uniform surface, reduced corrugation, and excellent thermoformability, with a thickness deviation of 7-22% and a constant thickness.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a polyester foam sheet in which inorganic particles containing alkaline earth metal carbonate are dispersed in a polyester resin, wherein the content of residual alkaline earth metal elements per unit area (1 m width x 1 m length) of the foam sheet is in the range of 0.2 to 2.0 wt % and the foam sheet has a consistent thickness with a thickness deviation of 7 to 22%.
