    Abstract: A method for producing a foamed particle molded article provided with a skin, includes: forming a hollow molded article; filling a hollow part of the hollow molded article with polypropylene-based resin foamed particles; and heating and fusing the particles to each other. A melt elongation at 190° C. of the polypropylene-based resin forming the hollow molded article is 100 m/min or more. A half-crystallization time at 100° C. of the polypropylene-based resin is between 25 to 80 seconds. In heat flux differential scanning calorimetry, a melting peak temperature of the polypropylene-based resin is between 130 to 155° C., a partial heat of fusion at 140° C. or more of the polypropylene-based resin is between 20 to 50 J/g, and a ratio of the partial heat of fusion of the polypropylene-based resin to the total (partial heat of fusion/total heat of fusion) is between 0.2 to 0.8.

    Abstract: Provided is a core material of a seat cushion for a vehicle, including: a thermoplastic resin expanded beads molded article having a substantially rectangular shape in top view, that has thick portions on a front side and both sides of a circumferential portion thereof, and that has an occupant seating portion on an upper surface in an inner region thereof; and an annular frame member that is insert-molded at the circumferential portion of the thermoplastic resin expanded beads molded article. In the thermoplastic resin expanded beads molded article, formed are first slits having: slit pieces that extend along a front frame member at a position in front of the occupant sitting part and inside from the front frame part; and slit pieces that extend along a side frame member at a position outside from the occupant sitting part and inside from a side frame part.

    Abstract: The present invention provides expanded beads of thermoplastic polyurethane, wherein the thermoplastic polyurethane constituting the expanded beads is an ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane, and a difference (T1−T2) between a melting peak temperature (T1) and a melting peak temperature (T2) is from 0 to 8° C., wherein the melting peak temperature (T1) is a melting peak temperature at the time of first heating in a DSC curve obtained by heating the expanded beads from 20° C. to 260° C. at a heating rate of 10° C./min, the melting peak temperature (T2) is a melting peak temperature at the time of second heating in a DSC curve obtained by cooling from 260° C. to 20° C. at a cooling rate of 10° C./min after the first heating and further heating again from 20° C. to 260° C. at a heating rate of 10° C./min, and the DSC curves are obtained by the heat flux differential scanning calorimetry in conformity with JIS K7121-1987. The expanded beads of thermoplastic polyurethane not only have excellent surface appearance and fusion bonding properties but also have a low shrinkage factor.

    Abstract: A long synthetic resin foam body composed of a thermoplastic resin expanded beads-molded substrate and a frame having displacement regulating sections provided at both ends in the longitudinal or lateral direction of the substrate and a connecting section that connects the displacement regulating sections to each other. The substrate has at least one joint forming portion that divides the substrate in a direction intersecting the connecting section into two or more substrate parts. The joint forming portion has a joint that connects the adjacent two substrate parts to each other and is deformable to permit a relative displacement between the adjacent two substrate parts when the substrate contracts or expands.
