来る。EXAMPLES Examples will be described with reference to the drawings. First, 1000 g of polycaprolactone (PLACCEL H-7 manufactured by Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd.), which is a biodegradable thermoplastic resin, is heated and melted at 85 ° C. for 3 hours, and then foamed. Add 20 g of azodicarbonamide as an agent and raise the temperature to about 70 ° C.
The azodicarbonamide is uniformly dispersed in polycaprolactone, and the mixture is cut into a sheet to prepare a compound 10 having a thickness of 4 mm, a length of 40 mm, and a width of 40 mm. 210 ° C. on the lower mold 20,
When heated for 15 minutes to foam, an apparent density of about 0.3g
A foam body 30 of / cm 3 is obtained. Upper mold 40 in this state
When stacked and press molded, an apparent density of about 0.3 g / c
A product 50 of m 3 is obtained. As the biodegradable thermoplastic resin, polyglycolide, microbial polyhydroxyalkanoate, etc. can be used in addition to polycaprolactone. In addition, in order to improve the resin material,
If necessary, a plasticizer, a filler, etc. can be added.

する必要がある。The obtained product has a cellular structure, an apparent specific gravity is small, the amount of biodegradable thermoplastic resin required per product volume is reduced, the cost is reduced, and the specific surface area is large. It has a high degree of contact with, has a high rate of biodegradation, and if left alone, biodegrades in a short period of time. As the foam 30, the closed cell foam 31, the open cell foam 3
Both of the two can be produced, but the one having the structure of the open cell foam 32 leading to the outside has a high biodegradation rate. But,
Since it lacks airtightness and liquidtightness, it is necessary to form a skin layer or coating layer 33 on the surface in order to prevent gas and liquid from permeating.
