能であった。Since the conventional supercritical fluid supply device is configured as described above, there are the following problems. That is, the density of the supercritical fluid changes greatly depending on the temperature and pressure, but when it is supplied to the extruder, it is continuous as described above. However, when supplying to an injection molding machine, the injection molding machine itself is in an intermittent operation, so the screw retreats and keeps the supply amount constant during injection. Supply had to be stopped, and as a result, quantitative control of the supply amount was impossible.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a flow control mechanism of a supercritical fluid which can be intermittently supplied at a constant rate.
