Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a method of forming a hollow blow-molded foam and also provide such a hollow-molded foam, which are capable of improving a flow-rate efficiency of a fluid that flows through the inside of the hollow blow-molded foam. A foaming resin is sandwiched between molds so that a hollow blow-molded foam having a ventilation path is molded, and a fluid for use in cooling the hollow blow-molded foam is allowed to flow through the ventilation path so that the hollow blow-molded foam is cooled.

[Problem] To provide a light-weight air conditioning duct for vehicle that is light in weight and excellent in mechanical strength.[Solution] The present invention is directed to a light-weight air conditioning duct for vehicle 1 for letting conditioned air supplied from an air conditioning unit pass through to a desired location, the duct being obtained by blow-molding a mixed resin including a polypropylene-based resin for foaming and a hydrogenated styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer, and the duct having an Izod impact strength equal to or larger than 10 J/m at −20 degrees Celsius.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing multilayer foam where easy generation of dead air and improvement in foam magnification is offered. Multilayer resin that has non-foam layer outside foam layer is pushed out, the innermost side of the multilayer resin is bonded mutually, and multilayer resin laminating body is formed. Multilayer resin laminating body is clamped in the empty space between outermost side of multilayer resin laminating body and cavity side with metal mold. Multilayer resin laminating body is molded in the shape along cavity side, and the multilayer foam is molded.
Abstract:
The invention provides a molded foam molding method capable of obtaining a molded foam in which pinholes may not be formed with ease even when a blow ratio is high and which has a high expansion ratio. The invention also provides a molded foam which includes no pinholes, is reduced in weight, and is excellent in heat insulating property. The molding method includes blending a polypropylene-based resin having an equilibrium compliance from 2.0 to 6.0 (10−3×Pa−1) with a foaming agent and kneading the blend in an extruder. The extruded foamed resin is molded so as to be fit along a mold by a pressurized fluid. Moreover, the molded foam is formed by the method described above, and has an expansion ratio from 1.5 to 5.0 times and an impact strength of not less than 30 kg·cm.

Abstract:
The invention provides a method for manufacturing a climate control duct, the method capable of improving a characteristic of transferring a shape of a protrusion onto a surface of a duct and capable of preventing reduction in ventilation efficiency. In order to manufacture a climate control duct having a protrusion formed on an outer peripheral surface thereof, the method includes subjecting an extruded foamed resin to blow molding by use of a duct-shaped mold in which a groove for transfer of a shape of the protrusion is formed on at least part of a surface thereof. Herein, the following relations are satisfied: 0.5 mm
Abstract:
A blow-molded foam having a wall portion formed in such a manner that a thermoplastic resin containing a foaming agent mixed therewith is subjected to blow molding. Herein, the wall portion has a closed cell structure in which a plurality of foamed cells are contained. The wall portion has an expansion ratio of not less than 2.0 times. The wall portion has an outer face having a center-line average surface roughness Ra of less than 9.0 μm. The foamed cell has a cell diameter having a standard deviation of less than 40 μm in a thickness direction of the wall portion.
