[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] In recent years, Kai-shaped bodies made of pre-expanded olefin resin particles have been widely used as cushioning materials, packaging materials, etc. However, this type of Kai-shaped bodies are not electrically charged. However, for products used for packaging electronic components that are sensitive to dust and static electricity, a pre-shaped body with antistatic properties and a surface resistivity of IXIO''Ω/C or less is required. .

)、等の問題があった。In order to impart antistatic properties to this type of molded product, it is possible to use pre-expanded particles impregnated with an antistatic agent to produce the molded product, or to spray an antistatic agent onto the pre-expanded particles. Methods are also known, but the molded bodies obtained by molding pre-expanded particles impregnated with an antistatic agent or applied by spraying have poor sustainability of antistatic ability, and the pre-expanded particles The drawback was that it required complicated work to impregnate or spray the antistatic agent on the surface of the material. On the other hand, a method is also known in which an antistatic agent is kneaded into resin particles used for producing pre-expanded particles. In this method, the antistatic agent can be added to the resin at the same time during the manufacturing process of the resin particles, so there is no risk of complicating the work process, and it also has the advantage of excellent sustainability of antistatic performance. On the other hand, ■The surface specific resistance value is IXIO1! It is difficult to obtain pre-expanded particles with excellent antistatic properties of Ω or less.■ Especially in the case of non-crosslinked olefin resins, it is difficult to obtain pre-expanded particles with excellent fusion properties, resulting in poor fusion in the pre-shaped body. Although the surface resistivity value on the skin surface of the ■kai type body is excellent, it may not be possible to obtain a sufficient surface resistivity value on the cut surface, or it may take an extremely long time to obtain it (tc type body). (Many times, products are stored in recesses that have been cut into the body.)

完威するに至った。As a result of intensive research in view of the above points, the inventors of the present invention have found that by incorporating a specific surfactant into the foaming olefin resin particles, pre-foamed particles with excellent secondary foamability and fusion properties can be obtained. The inventors have also found that the pre-expanded particles obtained from the pre-expanded particles can exhibit excellent antistatic properties not only in the skin layer but also on the cut surface within 1 to 2 weeks, and have brought the present invention to fruition.

O is a nonionic surfactant having an antistatic ability of 50 to 1000 and an HLB of 4 to 8. It is contained in an amount of 1 to 5% by weight, preferably 0.3 to 3.0% by weight. Nonionic surfactants with antistatic properties have superior thermal stability compared to cationic and amphoteric surfactants, so they can be used to melt and knead resins at high temperatures of 150 to 200°C, or to pre-expand particles. It does not deteriorate its antistatic ability or cause coloring of the resin due to the heat generated during heating or molding in the mold, and it has superior antistatic ability compared to anionic surfactants. , cationic, and amphoteric surfactants, the dissolution into water is lower than that of cationic and amphoteric surfactants. Therefore, during granulation, the active agent in the resin is easily extruded into strands and cooled in water. There is little risk of elution and deterioration of antistatic ability. Examples of the nonionic surfactant having an antistatic ability with an average molecular weight of 250 to 1,000 and an HLB of 4 to 8 include the following compounds.

型体が得られなくなる場合が多い。HLB of nonionic surfactant contained in resin particles
If it is less than 4, it will be difficult to obtain a surface resistivity value of less than IXI012Ω/d within 1 to 2 weeks, resulting in poor antistatic properties. In addition, if the HLB exceeds 8, it is difficult to obtain a molded body with good fusion properties of foamed particles, and even if it is obtained, the molded body may be colored or come into contact with the molded body, such as a bottle for electronic parts. This causes the problem that the metals that are covered with the metal are likely to corrode. Furthermore, if the average molecular weight of the nonionic surfactant is less than 250, the antistatic ability will not last long, and if the average molecular weight exceeds 1000, the time required to develop the antistatic ability will be longer than two weeks. Undesirable. Furthermore, the amount of surfactant added is 0.1% by weight.
If it is less than 5% by weight, sufficient antistatic ability will not be imparted.
If it exceeds this value, the fusion between the expanded particles becomes insufficient, and a good molded body cannot be obtained in many cases.

剤を界面活性剤とともに添加することもできる。A method for producing the resin particles of the present invention includes a method in which a resin and a surfactant are melt-kneaded in an extruder, extruded from the extruder into a strand, and after cooling, the strand is cut into particles. A preferred method is to first mix 2 to 20% by weight of a nonionic surfactant with antistatic properties to the resin, and melt-knead the mixture at 100 to 250°C using a triple roll, kneader, extruder, etc. to form a master. The batch is cured and then the final content of surfactant is 0. This is a method of mixing the above masterbatch with a resin that does not contain a surfactant and granulating it as described above so that the concentration is 1 to 5% by weight. According to this method, the surfactant is uniformly mixed. It can be dispersed in resin particles. Incidentally, if necessary, a coloring agent such as a pigment may be added together with a surfactant in the above granulation step.

熱する工程で同時に行っても、別工程で行っても良い。Foaming agents used for foaming include aliphatic hydrocarbons such as propane, butane, isobutane, pentane, isobentane, hexane, and hebutane; cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclobutane and cyclopentane; and trichlorofluoromethane. , dichlorodifluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, methyl chloride, ethyl chloride, etc., and/or volatile blowing agents such as halogenated hydrocarbons and/or Co! ,N. , an inorganic gas such as air can be used. The amount of the blowing agent added varies depending on the expansion ratio of the foamed particles, but is generally 3 to 40 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the resin particles. A preferred method for producing the pre-expanded particles of the present invention is to disperse the resin particles and a blowing agent in a dispersion medium such as water in a closed container, heat the resin particles with stirring to impregnate the blowing agent into the resin particles, and then heat the resin particles at a high temperature. An example of this method is to hold the resin particles under high pressure and then release the resin particles and the dispersion medium simultaneously to atmospheric pressure to foam the resin particles. The impregnation of the foaming agent into the resin particles for foaming may be carried out simultaneously with the step of dispersing the resin particles in a dispersion medium in a closed container and heating to the foaming temperature as described above, or may be carried out in a separate step. .
