- process step d) comprises the following substeps d4) to d5): d4) casting over the metal foam from steps c) with at least one reaction resin, preferably with at least one epoxy resin or a spatially crosslinked polyurethane, d5) curing the at least one reaction resin Step d4) to obtain the metal foam-plastic composite, wherein the curing is carried out at room temperature, in a heated tool (W3) or a heated furnace.
- the metal foam from process step c) is preferably encapsulated with at least one reaction resin.
- thermoplastic polymers As opposed to overmolding with thermoplastic polymers, simpler tools such as light metals or resins can be used when encapsulating with reaction resins since the low viscosity reaction resins process at lower pressures and lower temperatures than the thermoplastic injection molding polymers become.
- the at least one reaction resin is preferably an epoxy resin or a spatially crosslinked polyurethane resin.
- the at least one reaction resin from step d4) is cured to obtain the metal foam-plastic composite, wherein the curing is carried out at room temperature, in a heated tool (W3) or a heated furnace.
- the heated tool (W3) or the heated furnace as such are known in the art.
- Another object of the present invention relates to the use of the metal foam-plastic composite in lightweight construction, preferably in means for Passenger transportation, in building construction, in exhibition stand construction and / or in housings for electronic applications, particularly preferably in motor vehicle construction, in rail vehicle construction, in container construction, in elevators, scaffolding and / or in escalators. All definitions which have been established for the metal foam-plastic composite according to the invention and for the method according to the invention for its production also apply to the use of the metal foam-plastic composite.
- EXAMPLES Example 1 Escalator step made of open-pore aluminum foam (density 1.4 g / cm 3 )
- the escalator stage has a low weight, which requires less energy to operate, the increased risk of contamination and the permeability of the open-pore aluminum foam are disadvantageous.
- Escalator step made of open-pore aluminum foam filled to at least 90% by volume with at least one epoxy resin (Baxxodur® EC 5500, Hardener EC 5510)
- the filling with the at least one epoxy resin reduces the risk of contamination and the permeability of the open-pore aluminum foam.
- Escalator step of an open aluminum foam which at least 90 vol .-% with at least one epoxy resin (Baxxodur ® EC 5500; EC 5510 curing agent) is filled, and additionally with at least one plastic (B) is cast around it.
- the plastic (B) is a polyurethane elastomer resin BASF SE (Elastocast ® TIE) based on polytetrahydrofuran and a Shore A hardness of 85 (DIN 53505).
- a 70% open-pore aluminum foam (density 0.81 g / cm 3 ) of size 100 ⁇ 100 ⁇ 10 mm 3 is uniformly soaked with 50 g of freshly mixed rigid polyurethane foam system (Elastopor® H 5 2100/46 from BASF) at room temperature. In a drying cabinet, the foam is then cured in 30 minutes at 60 ° C.
- the resulting composite with a density of 1.3 g / cm 3 is very stiff, sound-absorbing and shows a high energy dissipation during deformation.
- a 70% open-pore aluminum foam (density 0.81 g / cm 3 ) of size 100 ⁇ 100 ⁇ 10 mm 3 is uniformly soaked with 75 g of freshly mixed polyurethane elastomer (Elastocast® TIE 15 BASF) at room temperature. In a drying cabinet, the polyurethane elastomer resin is then cured in 30 minutes at 60 ° C.
- the resulting composite with a density of 1.6 g / cm 3 is stiff, sound-absorbing, shows a very high energy dissipation during deformation and has a non-slip surface.
- a 50% open-pore aluminum foam (density 1, 4 g / cm 3 ) of size 100 ⁇ 100 ⁇ 25 ⁇ 10 mm 3 is soaked as evenly as possible with 55 g of freshly mixed epoxy resin (Baxxodur® EC 5500, Hardener EC 5510) at room temperature. In a drying oven, the reaction resin is then cured in 30 minutes at 100 ° C.
- the resulting composite with a density of 1.9 g / cm 3 is extremely stiff, 30 sound-absorbing and shows a high energy dissipation during deformation.
- a product prepared according to Example 6 the composite 35 is 106 x 106 x 16 mm 3 centrally-centered inserted into an injection mold the size and with Ultramid ® B3 WG6 (30 wt .-% of short glass fibers) at a pressure of about 200 bar and a temperature of 280 ° C overmoulded.
- Example 8 (embodiment):
- a composite produced according to Example 5 is placed center-centered in a casting tool of size 104 ⁇ 104 ⁇ 14 mm 3 and coated with a polyurethane elastomer resin from BASF SE (Elastocast® TIE) based on polytetrahydrofuran and a Shore A hardness of 85 (DIN 53505). at a pressure of about 5 bar and a temperature of 80 ° C umgössen.
- a polyurethane elastomer resin from BASF SE (Elastocast® TIE) based on polytetrahydrofuran and a Shore A hardness of 85 (DIN 53505).
- the obtained composite with a density of 1.6 g / cm 3 is extremely stiff and shows a perfect and non-slip surface.
