Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for the preparation of complex, foam-molded
  • Hard foam materials in particular poly (meth) acrylimide (P (M) I), preferably from
  • Polymethacrylimide (PMI) cores which can be used for example in the automotive or aircraft industry.
  • the method is characterized by the fact that by using a particulate core during foaming, an additional weight saving compared to foam materials or sandwich materials of the prior art can be realized.
  • Sandwich components in many cases provide the best balance between weight and mechanical properties. For very large volume components, such as e.g. in complex three-dimensional structures with large thickness, or depending on the present
  • Kernamterial is not completely needed in the final application. In these cases, it primarily serves as a production aid, which unnecessarily adds additional weight in the final component.
  • wax cores are used today in small quantities.
  • fiber composite materials are applied to wax cores, consolidated in various infusion procedures and finally removed from the wax core.
  • the processing methods are limited to low temperatures and low pressures and removal of the wax core has proven to be a very complex process step. This results in only very long cycle times during processing. Thus, only very small quantities can be realized.
  • foams with a cavity such a method is not suitable.
  • a melting within a foam core is excluded due to the diffusion into the pores alone.
  • the wax core would have to be removed over a large-area recess, which in turn would lead to a reduced stability of the foam core.
  • DE 3 630 930 describes another process for foaming the abovementioned copolymer plates of methacrylic acid and methacrylonitrile.
  • the polymer plates with the help of a
  • Microwave field foamed which is why this is referred to below as the microwave method.
  • the plate to be foamed, or at least its surface must first be heated to or above the softening point of the material. Since the foaming of the material softened by the external heating naturally also starts under these conditions, the foaming process can not be controlled solely by the influence of a microwave field, but must also be controlled by an accompanying heating from the outside. Thus, a microwave field is added to the normal single-stage hot air process to accelerate the foaming. However, the microwave method has proved to be too complicated and therefore not relevant to practice and is still not used.
  • foams based on methacrylic acid and acrylonitrile are also known with similar properties. These are described, for example, in CN 100420702C. However, these foams are also produced by means of plates.
  • it was an object of the present invention by means of this method can be processed easily and at high throughput speed hard foam, in particular P (M) I particles in an in-mold-foaming process to molded foam cores or sandwich materials, these compared to the state

  • Invention is the foam in step e. partially drilled or cut open. This is done to the particles in step f. then remove. The result is a foam body whose cavity can be almost completely surrounded by the foam. The size of the subsequent opening depends on the particle size and the flowability, as well as possibly the shape of the cavity and the desired removal time of the particles.
