Abstract

A process for producing a thermoplastic elastomer composition foam body is provided that includes, in sequence, a step of injecting by an injection molding machine into a cavity of a mold for injection molding a foaming agent and a thermoplastic elastomer composition comprising component (A), component (B), and component (C) below, component (B) having a content of 5 to 150 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of component (A) and component (C) having a content of 5 to 300 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of component (A), a step of holding for not less than 4 seconds after completion of the injection, and a step of enlarging the volume of the cavity by moving a wall face of the cavity to a predetermined position. (A): A hydrogenated product of a block copolymer comprising a block composed of an aromatic vinyl compound-based monomer unit and a block composed of a conjugated diene compound-based monomer unit, (B): a propylene resin, and (C): a mineral oil.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a thermoplastic elastomer composition foam and a thermoplastic elastomer composition for foam injection molding. Background technique [0002] Currently, foamed parts requiring flexibility, heat resistance, etc., such as automotive interior materials and home appliance parts, are formed of styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer compositions containing hydrogenated products of block copolymers and polypropylene-based resins as follows: A foam, the block copolymer comprising a block composed of monomer units based on an aromatic vinyl compound and a block composed of monomer units based on a conjugated diene compound. [0003] As a method for producing the foam, from the viewpoint of improving productivity, a foam injection molding method is used. For example, the following method for producing a foam is described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-218741, which is characterized in that: (a) A styre...
