Foaming polymer material special for vine art furniture and method of producing the same

Abstract

The invention discloses foaming polymer material specially used for rattan furniture is novel plastic blend consisting of polyethylene resin, a polymer foaming agent, a compatibilizer, an antiaging agent, nano-filler, a coupling agent, a lubricant, etc. which are blended by a twin-screw extruder and achieves the effect of material shrinkage after foaming which cannot be achieved by the traditional foaming agents. The unique antiaging agent makes the material have outstanding weathering resistance; the polyethylene resin accounts for 25 percent to 90 percent in the blend, the polymer foaming agent accounts for 5 percent to 55 percent, the compatibilizer accounts for 1 percent to 15 percent, the antiaging agent accounts for 0.1 percent to 2 percent and the nano inorganic filler accounts for 5 percent to 20 percent; the consumption of the coupling agent is 0.1 percent to 1 percent of that of the nano inorganic filler; and the lubricant accounts for 0.1 percent to 1 percent of the blend. The plastic imitating rattan furniture produced by the blend mentioned in the invention has the multi-pore structure, the natural texture and the natural color of natural rattan, and is used to weave rattan furniture, such as rattan chairs, flower baskets, tea tables, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a foaming polymer material, in particular to a special foaming polymer material for rattan furniture and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Returning to nature is one of the development trends of modern furniture. The style of rattan furniture is fresh and elegant, simple and natural yet fashionable, which fully caters to the desire of modern people to return to green nature and makes people's living environment full of pastoral style. Natural rattan is a kind of thorny palm climbing plant that grows in tropical forests. It is widely used in the manufacture of rattan furniture because of its light porosity, natural color and strong toughness. However, as one of the main raw materials for weaving rattan furniture, natural rattan always has the following problems: it is easy to mold and grow moths, it is easy to dry, crack and become brittle, and it is easy to deform and fade. Therefore, furniture made o...

Problems solved by technology

However, as one of the main raw materials for weaving rattan furniture, natural rattan always has the following problems: it is easy to mold and grow moths, it is easy to dry, crack and become brittle, and it is easy to deform and fade. Therefore, the furniture made of natural rattan generally does not last long.

Natural rattan has a porous structure due to dehydration, and its meter weight is generally 8-10g. Therefore, ordinary synthetic polymer materials imitating rattan are not conducive to controlling the production cost of rattan furniture.

Rattan furniture and other products made of natural rattan and ordinary synthetic polymer materials imitating rattan also have the disadvantage of hard touch.
