Invention content
Problems to be solved by the invention
However, there are the following problems for the above-mentioned prior art.
The manufacturing method of patent document 1 is the method for obtaining the big pre-expanded particles of cell diameter.However, prefoam When cell diameter in the bubble structure of particle increases, it can make by pre-expanded particles send out obtained from foaming in mold Steep the strength reduction of formed body.In addition, thermal conductivity is got higher and deterioration of thermal insulation performance.
Described in the manufacturing method of patent document 2, when obtained foaminess particle is carried out prefoam, what is obtained is pre- Expanded beads have the bubble structure that small and number of bubbles is more in outer section bubble, big in internal central gas bubble and number of bubbles is few, It is excellent that the pre-expanded particles are subjected to the surface smoothness of expanded moldings, amalgamation obtained from foaming in mold.However, by In the bubble of the inside center of the pre-expanded particles obtained by the prior art, big and number of bubbles is few, therefore, carries out in mold The intensity of expanded moldings obtained from foaming is low.Even it is also poly- with high intensity that its result can not provide high-foaming multiple Phenylethylene resin series expanded moldings.
In addition, in the manufacturing method of the pre-expanded particles of patent document 3, it will be so that its diameter becomes the spray of extrusion die Foaming body obtained from 1.5~10.5 times of mode of outspoken diameter is foamed is cut off, and obtains pre-expanded particles.Thus, due to The foaming body of column (being cylindric when nozzle form is circle) is cut off, therefore, obtained pre-expanded particles be not it is spherical and It is column.Such column pre-expanded particles are filled than spherical particle difficulty, when being filled in the die cavity of molding die, it is difficult to fully It fills, gap is easy tod produce between particle.Accordingly, it is possible to foaming obtains in mold expanded moldings can be made to generate recess and Degraded appearance or mechanical strength reduce.
The manufacturing method of patent document 4 manufactures expanded moldings via following each process：(1) by extrusion by melting The process for obtaining foaminess resin particle；(2) heating of obtained foaminess resin particle is then obtained into pre-expanded particles Process；(3) then, obtained pre-expanded particles are filled in the die cavity of molding die, are heated, foaming in mold And the process for obtaining expanded moldings.Therefore, the low production efficiency of expanded moldings, and need foaminess resin particle, pre- The storage space of expanded beads.
For the manufacturing method of the foaming polystyrene series resin particle of patent document 5, passing through melting extrusion During legal system makes foaminess resin particle, molten resin is squeezed out into the cooling liquid of normal pressure.Therefore, it is impossible to inhibit Bubble in obtained foaming polystyrene series resin particle occurs, and bulk density is lower, and transfer efficiency reduces.In addition, also There are problems that resin particle is caused to rupture or be easy disintegration because producing foaming.
The expanded moldings of whiteness is high when in turn, for using foaming foaming polystyrene series resin particle manufacture and Speech, sometimes mechanical strength reduction.
In addition, when foaming for the high foaming polystyrene series resin particle of whiteness, due to the loss of foaming agent Soon, thus can storage time (hereinafter referred to as bead service life) it is short.Therefore, it is difficult to take care of for a long time.
For the manufacturing method of patent document 6, due to mainly using butane as foaming agent, foaming agent Loss is fast and the bead service life shortens, and can not take care of for a long time sometimes.
In addition, in the manufacturing method of patent document 6, mainly use butane as foaming agent, as recorded in embodiment 70~90 DEG C of pressurization coolant-temperature gage, manufacture under conditions of heating pressurization water pressure 10~15kg/cm2.In such a situa-tion When manufacturing foaming polystyrene series resin particle, due to carrying out being cut to completely after squeezing out molten resin into pressure (hydraulic) water Foaming is generated during solidification, therefore, can speculate to obtain bulk density less than 0.58g/cm3The high foamable polystyrene of whiteness It is resin particle.Thus, for the foaming polystyrene series resin particle of the patent document 6, it may be said that exist because of production It given birth to foaming and the bulk density of resin particle is caused to be lower, needed in keeping, transport due to the volume of certain mass increases Extra space, the machinery because producing the expanded moldings for causing resin particle to rupture or be easy disintegration and manufacture due to foaming The problems such as strength reduction.
It should be noted that the patent document 7 for manufacturing polystyrene resin particle by seeded polymerization, for this It is unrelated with the above problem of foaming polystyrene series resin particle is manufactured by extrusion by melting outside the object of invention.
Present invention is made in view of the above circumstances, even it is intended that high-foaming times can be manufactured by providing one kind Number also has foaming polystyrene series resin particle and its manufacturer of the polystyrene resin expanded moldings of high intensity Method.
It is foamed into addition, can directly be manufactured by extrusion by melting the object of the present invention is to provide one kind for manufacturing The pre-expanded particles of type body, and excellent, excellent strength the expanded moldings of the fillibility in molding die die cavity can be obtained The manufacturing method of thermoplastic resin pre-expanded particles.
In addition, the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of polystyrene resin foamings that excellent strength can be obtained Body and foaming agent stable, bead long lifespan the foaming polystyrene series resin particle from the loss in foaminess resin particle.
The solution to the problem
To achieve the goals above, the first invention of the invention provides a kind of bubbles foaming polystyrene series resin Grain, is the bubbles foaming polystyrene series resin for including foaming agent and bubble in polystyrene resin particle Grain, wherein by the section by resin particle center of bubbles foaming polystyrene series resin particle, remove particle surface It plays the number of bubbles in the presence of the section other than 200 μm and is set as n/mm2, bulk density be set as ρ g/cm3When, with formula (1)
N=n ÷ (1/ ρ) (1)
