The invention relates to the technical field of foaming devices, in particular to a foaming device based on supercritical CO2 and a method thereof. According to the technical scheme, the device comprises a reaction kettle, a
carbon dioxide conveying part, a negative pressure part, a
shielding gas part, a circulating part, a
temperature control part and a supporting plate
system arranged in the kettle. The supporting plate
system is provided with an accommodating chamber with an arc-shaped bottom surface, normal micropores are formed in the bottom, and a
polymer sample can be suspended through
airflow and is prevented from being in contact with a supporting surface, so that full-surface uniform foaming is realized. The method comprises the steps of loading,
atmosphere replacement, supercritical environment establishment,
dissolution saturation, rapid pressure relief foaming, unloading and the like. The method can effectively eliminate the
shadow effect, improves the foaming uniformity and the product performance consistency, and is suitable for microcellular foaming preparation of various
polymer materials.
