[0009] Here, a preferred example of the present disclosure will be described. -Polyurethane foam moldings containing more than 0% by mass and up to 15% by mass of ground polyurethane foam. -Polyurethane foam moldings with an average sound absorption coefficient of 0.50 or more in the range of 1.0kHz to 6.3kHz when measured using the reverberation chamber sound absorption coefficient measurement method based on JIS A 1409:1998. -Polyurethane foam molding with a loss factor of 0.20 or more at the anti-resonance point around 450 Hz, measured in accordance with JIS K 7391:2008. A method for producing a polyurethane foam molded product, comprising foaming a mixed composition of a polyol, a polyisocyanate, and pulverized polyurethane foam to obtain a polyurethane foam molded product.
[0010] The present disclosure will be described in detail below. In this specification, when a numerical range is indicated using "-", it is intended to include both the lower limit and the upper limit unless otherwise specified. For example, the expression "10-20" includes both the lower limit "10" and the upper limit "20". In other words, "10-20" has the same meaning as "10 or more and 20 or less".
[0011] 1. Polyurethane foam molding 10 The polyurethane foam molded article 10 of the first embodiment is obtained by foaming a mixed composition of polyol, polyisocyanate, and pulverized polyurethane foam 11. The polyurethane foam molded article 10 of the second embodiment contains pulverized polyurethane foam 11 in an amount of more than 0 mass % and not more than 15 mass %.
[0012] (1) Polyurethane foam pulverized material 11 The pulverized polyurethane foam 11 may be any of flexible, semi-rigid, and rigid polyurethane foams. Among these, semi-rigid or rigid polyurethane foams are preferred from the viewpoint of ease of subdivision. The polyurethane foam may be either an open-cell foam or a closed-cell foam. While open-cell foams are generally used as sound-absorbing materials, the polyurethane foam molding 10 can exhibit desired performance, such as sound absorption, even if it is a closed-cell foam, by using pulverized polyurethane foam 11. Multiple types of polyurethane foam may be used in combination. The density of the polyurethane foam material is not particularly limited. The density of polyurethane foam measured in accordance with JIS K 7222 is, for example, 10 kg / m 3 -200kg / m 3 may be.
[0013] The polyurethane foam pulverized material 11 can be obtained by breaking down the polyurethane foam material. Specifically, from the viewpoint of recyclability, the polyurethane foam material may be scrap material discharged during the polyurethane foam manufacturing process or used polyurethane foam that is scheduled to be discarded. Alternatively, the polyurethane foam pulverized material 11 may be waste or scrap of polyurethane foam discharged during the polyurethane foam manufacturing process.
[0014] The size of the pulverized material 11 is not particularly limited. The size of the pulverized material 11 can be, for example, 50 mm or less, and from the viewpoint of moldability, may be 10 mm or less, 5 mm or less, 2 mm or less, or 1 mm or less. The size of the pulverized material 11 can be determined, for example, by capturing an enlarged image of the pulverized material 11 using a microscope and measuring the maximum diameter of its outer shape. The size of the pulverized material 11 can also be defined as the fraction that passes through a sieve having an opening diameter of a predetermined dimension. Examples of the predetermined dimension include 10 mm, 5 mm, 2 mm, 1 mm, and 0.5 mm. The size of the pulverized material 11 may be, for example, 0.1 mm or more, 0.5 mm or more, 1 mm or more, 3 mm or more, or 5 mm or more. The size of the pulverized material 11 can be set within a range that appropriately combines the above-mentioned lower and upper limits, taking productivity into consideration. The size of the pulverized material 11 can be set within a desired range by changing the processing conditions for obtaining the pulverized material 11 or by appropriately classifying the obtained pulverized material 11.
[0015] The content of pulverized polyurethane foam 11 is preferably greater than 0% by mass, more preferably greater than 1% by mass, and even more preferably greater than 2% by mass, when polyurethane foam molded body 10 is taken as 100% by mass. A content equal to or greater than the above range can improve sound absorption. Furthermore, when recycled materials are used for pulverized polyurethane foam 11, a content equal to or greater than the above range can improve recyclability. From the viewpoint of moldability, the content of pulverized polyurethane foam 11 is preferably equal to or less than 15% by mass, more preferably equal to or less than 10% by mass, and even more preferably equal to or less than 8% by mass. From these viewpoints, the content of pulverized polyurethane foam 11 is greater than 0% by mass and equal to or less than 15% by mass, preferably equal to or greater than 1% by mass and equal to or less than 10% by mass, and even more preferably equal to or greater than 2% by mass and equal to or less than 8% by mass.
[0016] (2) Other components of the mixed composition The mixed composition contains a polyol and a polyisocyanate in addition to the pulverized polyurethane foam 11. The mixed composition may also contain a foaming agent, a crosslinking agent, a catalyst, and other auxiliary agents as appropriate. Examples of the other auxiliary agents include a foam stabilizer and a colorant.
[0017] The polyol is not particularly limited, and polyols for polyurethane foams can be used, such as polyether polyols, polymer polyols, and polyester polyols.
[0018] Examples of polyether polyols include polyether polyols obtained by adding alkylene oxides such as ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) to polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, butylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, glycerin, pentaerythritol, trimethylolpropane, sorbitol, and sucrose.
[0019] Examples of polymer polyols include polyols obtained by graft polymerizing a vinyl monomer onto a polyether polyol. Examples of the vinyl monomer include acrylonitrile, styrene, and methyl methacrylate. The content of the vinyl monomer unit (graft portion) in the polymer polyol is preferably 10 to 50 parts by mass based on the total amount of the polymer polyol and the polyether polyol.
[0020] Examples of polyester polyols include polyester polyols obtained by polycondensation of an aliphatic carboxylic acid such as malonic acid, succinic acid, or adipic acid, or an aromatic carboxylic acid such as phthalic acid, and an aliphatic glycol such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, or propylene glycol.
[0021] The foaming agent may be water, a hydrocarbon such as a chlorofluorocarbon alternative or pentane, or carbon dioxide, either alone or in combination. When water is used, carbon dioxide is generated during the reaction between water and isocyanate, and the carbon dioxide generates foam.
[0022] Examples of the crosslinking agent include known crosslinking agents commonly used in polyurethane foams, such as polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, 1,3-butanediol, 1,4-butanediol, glycerin, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, and sorbitol, amines such as ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, hexamethylenediamine, hydrazine, diethyltoluenediamine, and diethylenetriamine, aminoalcohols such as diethanolamine and triethanolamine, and compounds in which ethylene oxide, polypropylene oxide, or the like is added to these active hydrogen compounds. The crosslinking agents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0023] The catalyst may be a known urethanization catalyst, such as amine catalysts such as N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine, N-methyldicyclohexylamine, triethylamine, triethylenediamine, diethanolamine, dimethylaminomorpholine, N-ethylmorpholine, and tetramethylguanidine, tin catalysts such as stannous octoate and dibutyltin dilaurate, and metal catalysts (also called organometallic catalysts) such as phenylmercury propionate and lead octenate.
[0024] The polyisocyanate is not particularly limited. Examples of polyisocyanates that can be used include aliphatic or aromatic polyisocyanates having two or more isocyanate groups, mixtures thereof, and modified polyisocyanates obtained by modifying these. Examples of aliphatic polyisocyanates include hexamethylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, and dicyclohexamethane diisocyanate. Examples of aromatic polyisocyanates include toluene diisocyanate (TDI), diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), naphthalene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, and polymeric polyisocyanate (crude MDI). Other prepolymers can also be used.
[0025] The NCO index of the components in the mixed composition other than the polyurethane foam pulverized material 11 is preferably 80 to 110, and more preferably 90 to 105. The NCO index is the value obtained by dividing the total number of isocyanate groups in the polyisocyanate by the total number of active hydrogens that react with the isocyanate groups, and multiplying this value by 100. In other words, the NCO index is 100 when the number of active hydrogens that react with the isocyanate groups is stoichiometrically equal to the number of isocyanate groups in the polyisocyanate.
[0026] In the components other than the polyurethane foam pulverized material 11 in the mixed composition, the content of polyisocyanate relative to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of polyol is preferably 27 parts by mass or more and 38 parts by mass or less, more preferably 29 parts by mass or more and 36 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 30 parts by mass or more and 34 parts by mass or less.
[0027] 2. Method for producing polyurethane foam molded body 10 The polyurethane foam molded body 10 can be obtained by, for example, foaming a mixed composition of polyol, polyisocyanate, and pulverized polyurethane foam 11.
[0028] The pulverized polyurethane foam 11 can be obtained by pulverizing the polyurethane foam. Here, "pulverization" refers to breaking down the polyurethane foam into smaller pieces, and the method of pulverization is not particularly limited. The polyurethane foam may be broken down into smaller pieces by grinding, polishing, grinding, cutting, or cutting. The pulverized polyurethane foam 11 may also be classified after the polyurethane foam is pulverized.
[0029] The polyurethane foam can be pulverized using, for example, a pulverizer or grinder. The pulverizer is not particularly limited. By appropriately changing the blades of the pulverizer and the pulverization time, pulverized polyurethane foam 11 of a desired size can be obtained. The grinder is not particularly limited. By appropriately changing the grinding stone used in the grinder and the rotation speed of the grinding stone, pulverized polyurethane foam 11 of a desired size can be obtained.
[0030] The polyurethane foam is classified, for example, by sieving using a sieve having openings of a predetermined size. In classifying the polyurethane foam, the pulverized material 11 may be obtained as a fraction that passes through a predetermined (first) sieve, or as a fraction that does not pass through a predetermined (second) sieve, depending on the performance required of the product.
[0031] In the method for producing the polyurethane foam molded article 10, the method for obtaining the mixed composition is not particularly limited. An example of the method for obtaining the mixed composition will be described. A first raw material containing a polyol and a second raw material containing a polyisocyanate are prepared. At least one of the first raw material and the second raw material further contains pulverized polyurethane foam 11. The first raw material and the second raw material are mixed to obtain the mixed composition. By obtaining the mixed composition in this manner, the pulverized polyurethane foam 11 can be sufficiently mixed with other components before the reaction between the polyol and the polyisocyanate progresses.
[0032] When the amount (parts by mass) of polyol in the mixed composition is greater than the amount (parts by mass) of polyisocyanate, it is preferable that the first raw material contains pulverized polyurethane foam 11. That is, it is preferable to obtain the mixed composition by mixing the first raw material containing polyol and pulverized polyurethane foam 11 with the second raw material containing polyisocyanate. The first raw material may further contain components other than the isocyanate in the mixed composition, such as a blowing agent, a crosslinking agent, a catalyst, etc. The first raw material containing polyol and pulverized polyurethane foam 11 may become more viscous than before the addition of pulverized polyurethane foam 11, and may even lose fluidity. The greater the content of pulverized polyurethane foam 11 in the first raw material and the larger the size of pulverized polyurethane foam 11, the more likely the fluidity of the first raw material will decrease. In this embodiment, by appropriately designing the content of pulverized polyurethane foam 11 and the size of pulverized polyurethane foam 11 as described above, polyurethane foam molded body 10 can be suitably molded.
[0033] The molding method for polyurethane foam molded body 10 is not particularly limited, and known methods such as mold molding and slab molding can be used. In the case of mold molding, for example, a mixed composition is filled into a mold and foamed inside the mold to obtain polyurethane foam molded body 10. That is, polyurethane foam molded body 10 may be a molded product. In polyurethane foam molded body 10, pulverized polyurethane foam 11 and a portion other than pulverized polyurethane foam 11 12 do not need to be clearly distinguished from each other; when a cross section of polyurethane foam molded body 10 is visually inspected, the two may be indistinguishable. In FIG. 1, pulverized polyurethane foam 11 is schematically indicated by a two-dot chain line.
[0034] 3. Properties and Uses of Polyurethane Foam Molded Product 10 The polyurethane foam molded body 10 may be any of soft, semi-rigid, and hard. The polyurethane foam molded body 10 can be made soft, semi-rigid, and hard by, for example, appropriately designing the types of polyol, polyisocyanate, blowing agent, and the like in the mixed composition. From the viewpoint of sound absorption and vibration damping, the polyurethane foam molded body 10 is preferably soft. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of sound absorption, the polyurethane foam molded body 10 preferably has an open-cell structure.
[0035] There are no particular limitations on the density of the polyurethane foam molded body 10. The density of the polyurethane foam molded body 10 measured in accordance with JIS K 7222:2005 is, for example, 50 kg / m 3 -250kg / m 3 may be. There are no particular limitations on the 25% compression hardness of polyurethane foam molded article 10. The 25% compression hardness of polyurethane foam molded article 10 measured in accordance with JIS K6400-2:2004 Method D may be, for example, 30 kPa to 350 kPa.
[0036] The polyurethane foam molding 10 preferably has a sound-absorbing function. The polyurethane foam molding 10 is suitable as a sound-absorbing member. In reverberation chamber sound absorption coefficient measurement based on JIS A 1409:1998, the polyurethane foam molding 10 preferably has an average sound absorption coefficient of 0.50 or more in the range of 1.0 kHz to 6.3 kHz. The average sound absorption coefficient is more preferably 0.55 or more, and even more preferably 0.60 or more. The sound absorption coefficient is measured at frequencies of 1000Hz, 1250Hz, 1600Hz, 2000Hz, 2500Hz, 3150Hz, 4000Hz, 5000Hz, and 6300Hz using a measurement sample measuring 1m x 1m x 20mm thick. The arithmetic mean of the sound absorption coefficients at these frequencies is taken as the average sound absorption coefficient. At this time, the outer periphery of the measurement sample is covered with an aluminum fixture, and the gap between the test piece and the fixture is sealed with aluminum tape.
[0037] The polyurethane foam molded article 10 preferably has a vibration-damping function. The polyurethane foam molded article 10 is suitable as a vibration-damping member. The polyurethane foam molded article 10 preferably has a loss factor of 0.20 or more at an anti-resonance point near 450 Hz, as measured in accordance with JIS K 7391:2008. The loss factor is more preferably 0.24 or more, and even more preferably 0.26 or more. The anti-resonance point near 450 Hz is typically an anti-resonance point that appears between 300 Hz and 600 Hz. The loss factor is measured using a measurement sample measuring 30 mm x 300 mm x 20 mm thick, with a 2 mm thick iron plate placed underneath the measurement sample.
[0038] 3. Effects of this embodiment According to this embodiment, an article having desired properties can be provided using the polyurethane foam pulverized material 11. Examples of the desired properties of the polyurethane foam molded article 10 include sound absorption and vibration damping. In addition, the polyurethane foam molded article 10 may also have heat insulation, cushioning, shock absorption, etc.
[0039] Scraps generated during production and scraps and scraps that would otherwise be discarded can be used for the polyurethane foam pulverized material 11. This allows us to propose an environmentally friendly polyurethane foam molded product 10 with minimal material waste.
[0040] When the polyurethane foam molding 10 has a sound absorbing function, it is suitable as a sound absorbing member. When the polyurethane foam molding 10 has a vibration damping function, it is suitable as a vibration damping member. [Example]

[0052] The average sound absorption coefficient of Examples 1-6 was 0.50 or more in the range of 1.0 kHz to 6.3 kHz. It was suggested that Examples 1-6 had sound absorption properties and could be used as sound-absorbing materials. The sound absorption coefficient of Examples 1-3 was higher than that of Comparative Example 1. Furthermore, the sound absorption coefficient of Examples 4-6 was higher than that of Comparative Example 2.
