Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing molded parts from nanoporous polymer materials, comprising the following steps: a) producing a multiphase polymer mixture having domains in the range between 5 to 200 nm, b) impregnating the polymer mixture with an expanding agent, the solubility of the expanding agent during the phase forming the domains being at least twice as high as in the adjacent phases, c) expanding the multiphase polymer mixture comprising the expanding agent by introducing the polymer mixture into a cavity and expanding it therein, thus obtaining the molded part.
Abstract:
Disclosed are expandable styrene polymers (EPS) containing, in relation to the styrene polymer, a) 0.05 to 5 percent by weight of an organic bromine compound containing a minimum of 50 percent by weight of bromine as a flameproofing agent, b) 0.05 to 2 percent by weight of a flameproofing synergist, c) 1 to 5 percent by weight of a metallic salt as an acid collector. Also disclosed is a method for producing said expandable styrene polymers.
