2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, foam has been obtained from various materials such as rubber, olefin resin, styrene resin, vinyl chloride resin, acrylic resin, urethane resin, and thermosetting resin. The foam is generally foamed using an organic foaming agent, and particularly rubber latex such as natural rubber latex, chloroprene latex, styrene butadiene rubber latex, and nitrile rubber latex is mechanically foamed to form the foam. .

However, the use of an organic foaming agent such as a volatile solvent or a Freon gas has problems in terms of environment, health, etc., and in terms of performance, foam strength, weather resistance and the like were not sufficient. Further, the foam obtained by mechanically foaming the rubber latex as described above was not sufficient in water resistance, weather resistance, heat resistance, etc. due to its chemical structure.

On the other hand, foams have a wide range of uses such as soundproofing materials, packing materials, heat insulating / heat insulating materials, vibration damping materials, cushioning materials, building materials / interior materials, etc. Especially, sound insulating materials based on foams have been polluted in recent years. In response to problems and requests for improvement of living environment, working environment, etc., it has been used in a wide range of fields for both industrial and consumer use. Conventional foam-based soundproofing materials are generally expected to absorb noise and vibration as internal frictional heat due to vibration of gas in the bubble film and gas bubbles, so conventionally, soft polyurethane, rubber and other materials are used. Has been done. However, with these soft materials, compression recovery, strength,
It is not sufficient in terms of various properties such as water resistance, weather resistance, heat resistance, etc., and it is a major issue that the soundproofing performance is deteriorated with time, and the use environment and use location are also restricted. Also, by mechanically foaming an acrylic polymer emulsion,
It is also known to form a foam having good weather resistance, water resistance, heat resistance and the like (see, for example, JP-B-54-28425 and JP-A-2-264079), but conventionally such an acrylic foam is used. It is mainly used only as a lining material for rugs and is not always satisfactory in terms of physical properties, such as compression recovery properties and basic properties such as strength.

[0005]

Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide soundproofing, compression recovery, strength, weather resistance, water resistance,
An object of the present invention is to provide a soundproof material which has excellent properties including heat resistance and which can maintain required soundproofing performance for a long period of time even under various environments.

The glass transition point of the acrylic polymer in the present invention is usually -60 ° C to + 25 ° C, preferably -30 ° C to + 15 ° C. Glass transition point
If the temperature is lower than 60 ° C, the foam tends to have too strong tackiness to be difficult to handle, and the crosslinked foam tends to have low strength. On the other hand, when the temperature is higher than + 25 ° C, the crosslinked foam becomes too hard and poor in flexibility, so that the soundproofing performance may be insufficient or the use may be restricted.

The glass transition point of the acrylic polymer used in the present invention is determined by the differential scanning calorimeter (Rigaku Denki Co., Ltd.) (D

On the other hand, when it exceeds 500 nm, the water resistance and solvent resistance of the crosslinked foam tend to be low. The average particle diameter is a number average of particle diameters of 100 or more emulsion particles from an electron micrograph of an emulsion treated with uranyl acetate and osmic acid.
