The invention provides a foam material for a shoe, a preparation method and application of the foam material. The foam material is prepared by sequentially performing the processes of injection molding and
supercritical fluid foaming molding on a nylon
elastomer composite material, and the nylon
elastomer composite material comprises the following components in parts by
mass: 50-100 parts of nylonelastomer resin, 0-50 parts of
thermoplastic elastomer resin, 0.5-3 parts of a nanometer nucleating agent, 0-0.6 part of an antioxygen, 0-1.2 parts of
stearic acid and 0-0.6 part of a foaming stabilizer. The foam material for the shoe has nanopores, is relatively light in weight, is endowed with relatively high
hardness, further has the advantages of high resilience, low
compressive deformation,relatively high tensile strength and the like, greatly reduces the weight of a sneaker and also is also relatively excellent in
mechanical property and durability when used as an insole material of the shoe. In addition, the insole material of the shoe is prepared by rapidly releasing the pressure and foaming after dipping in
supercritical fluid, the preparation flow is shorter, and the efficiencyis higher.
