Problems solved by technology

[0016] Like this, it is difficult to fully increase the processing temperature before foam molding with existing thermally foamable microspheres.
In addition, conventional heat-expandable microspheres shrink significantly during foam molding and under high-temperature conditions.
Furthermore, the existing heat-expandable microspheres are difficult to control the desired expansion ratio due to rapid expansion.

Embodiment 1

[0110] (1) Preparation of aqueous dispersion medium

[0111] A water system was prepared by mixing 25 g of 20 wt % colloidal silica, 1.0 g of a 50 wt % diethanolamine-adipic acid condensation product (acid value = 78 mgKOH / g), 0.06 g of sodium nitrite, 89 g of sodium chloride and 276 g of water dispersion medium. Hydrochloric acid was added to this aqueous dispersion medium, and pH was adjusted to 3.2.

[0113] Mixed acrylonitrile 67g, methacrylonitrile 31g, methyl methacrylate 2g, diethylene glycol dimethacrylate 1.5g, isopentane 5g, isododecane 25g and 2,2'-azobisisobutyl 1.2 g of nitrile was used to prepare a polymerizable monomer mixture.

[0114] (3) Suspension polymerization

[0115] The aqueous dispersion medium prepared above and the polymerizable mixture are stirred and mixed with a homogenizer to form fine droplets of the polymerizable monomer mixture in the aqueous dispersion medium. The aqueous dispersion mediu...

Embodiment 2

[0120] The same procedure as in Example 1 was used except that 30 g of a mixture of isopentane and isododecane was replaced by 30 g of a mixture of isopentane, 13 g of isooctane, and 16 g of isododecane as the blowing agent. method, suspension polymerization was carried out to obtain thermally foamable microspheres with an average particle diameter of 51 μm.

[0121] The thermal foamable microspheres obtained above were sampled as they were, and TMA measurement was performed. As a result, the foaming start temperature was 194°C, the maximum foaming temperature was 209°C, and the shrinkage temperature by 50% was 223°C.

[0122] The heat-expandable microspheres were heat-treated at 170°C for 2 minutes and then measured by TMA. As a result, the foaming start temperature was 155°C, the maximum foaming temperature was 193°C, and the 50% shrinkage temperature was 218°C.

[0123] The above-mentioned thermally foamable microspheres were heated at 170°C for 2 minutes, and then the foam...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a thermally foamable microsphere having a structure in which a foaming agent is enclosed in a shell made of a polymer, and a method for producing the same. Further, the present invention relates to the use of heat-expandable microspheres as a heat-expandable foaming agent, a composition containing heat-expandable microspheres and a polymer material, and a composition containing heat-expandable microspheres for thermal expansion. Items of foam particles obtained by foaming. Background technique [0002] Heat-expandable microspheres, also known as heat-expandable microcapsules, are formed by microencapsulating a volatile liquid blowing agent with a polymer. Thermally foamable microspheres are generally produced by suspension polymerization of a polymerizable mixture containing at least one polymerizable monomer and a volatile blowing agent in an aqueous dispersion medium. As the polymerization reaction proceeds, a shell...
