  • a suitable polymeric resin may also comprise an ionomeric resin which is a partially neutralized copolymer of an olefin and a carboxylic acid, e.g., SURLIN 9450. While particular emphasis is placed on producing a foam sheet comprising an ethylenic and/or a styrenic resin, it is to be understood that the present invention may be practiced by employing one or more of the polymers listed above.
  • HFC-134a and/or HFC- 152a are particularly desirable for use as a blowing agent when forming polystyrene and polyethylene foams.
  • HFC- 134a enhances the insulating characteristics of the polystyrene foam because HFC- 134a has a relatively slow permeation rate through this foam, i.e., a greater quantity of HFC- 134a is retained within the foam which increases the R value of the foam.
  • nucleating agent serves primarily to increase cell count and reduce the cell size in the foam, and are typically used in an amount of about 0.1 part by weight to about 4.0 parts by weight per one hundred parts resin.
  • talc sodium bicarbonate/ citric acid, gaseous CO2, calcium silicate, among others, are suitable nucleating agents for reducing cell size.
  • the extruded foam sheet has a density which ranges from about 2.0 through about 8.0 pounds per cubic foot (pcf), and an average cell size of about 0.005 to 0.125, and normally about 0.010 to 0.125 inches in diameter.
  • compositions which may be used for producing foam in accordance with the present invention comprises from about 0 to 5% talc, about 70 to 80% polyethylene having a density of about 0.9 grams per cc and a melt index of about 2.0 grams per 10 min, about 20 to 30% recycled polyethylene having a density of about 0.96 grams per cc and a melt index of about 0.6 grams per 10 min, and about 10 to 20% of a blowing agent based upon the total amount of the foam.
  • Various additives for example, fire retardant additives, color concentrates, stabilizers, anti-oxidants, lubricants, among others, may also be used depending upon the specific end use of the foam sheet.
  • Another aspect of the invention comprises a method for foaming a mixture of a styrenic and/or an ethylenic resin(s) and a polyfluorocarbon blowing agent.
  • the method comprises producing a styrenic and/or an ethylenic foam by heating a resin in an extruder to produce a molten resin; introducing into the molten resin a blowing agent comprising at least one blowing agent such as HFC- 152a and/or HFC- 134a to produce a plasticized extrusion mass under a pressure sufficient which prevents excessive foaming of the extrusion mass; and extruding the extrusion mass through a die into a zone having a temperature and pressure sufficient to permit complete foaming of the extrusion mass; thereby providing the foam sheet.
  • the foam may be extruded using conventional foam extrusion systems such as tandem, twin screw, stretched single screw, among others.
  • the resin e.g., styrenic resin
  • a blowing agent e.g., styrenic resin
  • the foaming is typically carried out with the use of an extruder, wherein the styrenic polymer is heated to about 400° -450° F to produce a molten polymer.
  • the blowing agent is then introduced into the extruder wherein it is mixed with the molten polymer under pressures such that the resulting plasticized extrusion mass does not excessively foam, but its viscosity decreases.
  • the extrusion mass is then cooled. Cooling increases the viscosity and the melt strength of the mass prior to extrusion.
  • the mass is then extruded through a die of any desirable shape at a controlled temperature, usually about 300° F, wherein the reduced pressure outside the extruder permits the extruded mass to foam.
  • the temperature and pressure conditions under which the resin and blowing agent mixture will not excessively foam will depend upon the particular resin being used and generally, will be a temperature which ranges between about 240° F and about 440° F, and a pressure above about 600 psig.
  • the conditions of temperature and pressure under which the extrusion mass will complete foaming again will depend upon the particular resin used and generally, will be a temperature which ranges between about 240° F and 440° F but at a relatively low pressure. However, the more precisely the temperature is controlled throughout the extrusion process, the more uniform the resulting foam.
  • the degree of melt plasticization is controlled by the choice of the particular blowing agent composition, the amount of and type of nucleating agent or other additive(s) present, the particular resin or mixture being used and the Tg or Tg's of the resin(s), and the temperature, pressure in the extruder and the extrusion rate.
  • the shaping means used can also affect the orientation of the polymer.
  • the blowing agent may be added to the resin by injecting a stream of the blowing agent composition directly into the molten resin in the extruder.
  • the blowing agent should be mixed thoroughly with the resin which is contained before the blowing agent and resin mass are extruded from the die. Thoroughly mixing the blowing agent and resin is desirable for producing a foam which has a generally uniform density and cellular structure.
  • the extrusion mass comprising the molten resin and the blowing agent is normally extruded into an expansion zone within which foam formation and expansion takes place.
  • Any suitable extrusion equipment capable of processing polymeric compositions into a flexible foam sheet can be used for the extmsion, e.g., single or multiple-screw extruders.
  • Softening of the polymer and mixing with the blowing agent normally occur while working the polymer between flights of the screw or screws, which also serves to convey the extrusion mass to the extruder die. Screw speed and extruder barrel temperature should be sufficient to achieve adequate mixing and softening but not so high as to degrade the composition being processed.
  • the resultant foam can be used in the as-manufactured flexible sheet configuration, cut into other shapes, further shaped or processed.
  • the flexible foam sheet may be creased in order to improve packaging of the foam as well as installation.
  • a creased foam sheet is readily folded and prepared for shipment to the ultimate consumer. The consumer may then remove the folded foam sheet, affix one edge of the sheet to an upper end portion of a wooden member, and allow the folded foam sheet to unfurl or unroll. The remainder of the sheet is affixed to the wooden members in order to complete installation of the sheet.
  • the foam may be used in any environment where properties such as moisture vapor retardance, insulating, and flame resistance, are desirable.
  • the sheet foam may be useful for providing insulation in a structure having metallic or masonry members.
  • installation of the foam sheet is not limited to new home construction because the foam sheet may be installed during a renovation and/or at any specific location which the properties of the foam sheet are desirable.
  • Foam was extruded through an annular die, stretched over a mandrel about 4 times the die's diameter, and slit to produce a single sheet.

Abstract

Cette invention concerne une mousse en feuille polymère souple possédant des propriétés d'isolation thermique et de protection contre la vapeur humide, qu'on installe sous le contre-mur en maçonnerie sèche des surfaces internes d'une maison. On peut placer la mousse en feuille souple sur les éléments en bois qui définissent la structure de la maison, ou bien entre ces derniers. La mousse en feuille réduit les pertes en énergie existant entre l'intérieur de la maison et l'extérieur qui résultent elles-mêmes de la conduction thermique à travers les éléments en bois de la maison. On peut fabriquer la mousse en feuille en extrudant une résine polymère thermoplastique qu'on transforme ensuite en mousse en la soumettant à expansion ou en lui ajoutant des agents gonflants.
