Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system for producing a foamed polymer, comprising a first mixer for mixing at least two reactants reacting with one another to obtain a polymer-reactive reaction mixture, wherein at least one of the reaction components further comprises a supercritical fluid; and a foaming mold connected to the first mixer for receiving the reaction mixture with a first volume available for receiving the reaction mixture, the first volume being variable.
- the invention also relates to a process for producing a foamed polymer using such a system.
- Nanocellular or nanoporous polymer foams are particularly good materials for thermal insulation due to theoretical considerations.
- the internal dimensions of the foam structures are in the range of the mean free path of a gas molecule. In this way, the proportion of the gas in the heat transfer can be reduced.
- a polymer group commonly used in thermal insulation are polyurethanes.
- a polyol component in which a blowing agent is also contained is reacted with an isocyanate.
- the reaction of isocyanate with water produces carbon dioxide, which also acts as a propellant.
- the crucial step for the foaming and thus for the later cell size of the cured foam is the nucleation of blowing agents, since each cell in the foam is formed from a gas bubble. It can be observed here that as a rule no new gas bubbles are produced after nucleation, but propellants diffuse into already existing gas bubbles.
- stabilizers helps emulsify the various components, affects nucleation and prevents coalescence of the growing gas bubbles. They also affect the cell opening. In open-cell foams, the membranes of the growing pores are opened and the webs of the pores remain.
- the blowing agent is in the form of a microemulsion.
- Microemulsions form under certain conditions, which depend inter alia on the concentration of the emulsifiers and the temperature. Microemulsions are characterized by the fact that they are stable and that the non-polar phase, ie the blowing agent here, can be present in very small droplets within the polar phase. The diameters of such droplets can range from 1 to 100 nanometers lie.
- Atur selectedung by pressure and / or tempering the second fluid is converted into a near or supercritical state with a liquid-near density.
- the second fluid is completely or almost completely in pools, which are evenly distributed throughout the first fluid.
- the second fluid returns to a gaseous density state where the pools are inflated into nanoscale foam bubbles. No energy barrier needs to be overcome, nor do the blowing agent molecules have to diffuse to the growing bubbles.
- the first fluid a polymerizable substance is generally proposed here.
- the second fluid should be selected from a group of hydrocarbons such as methane or ethane, further alkanols, chlorofluorocarbons or CO 2 .
- an amphiphilic material is used, which should have at least one block inclined to the first fluid and at least one block inclined to the second fluid.
- WO 2011/054873 A2 relates to a process for producing a polyurethane foam, wherein the blowing agent used is in the supercritical or near-critical state.
- a reaction mixture is introduced into a closed mold, wherein the closed mold is set up so that its internal volume and / or the pressure prevailing in its interior can be changed after introduction of the mixture by external influence.
- the surfactant By choosing the surfactant, microemulsions of the blowing agent in the polyol phase can be obtained.
- Another subject is a nanocellular polyurethane foam obtainable by the process.
- WO 2012/059567 A1 discloses a process for producing a foamed material, wherein an emulsion-shaped composition having a matrix-forming component, a surfactant component and a near or supercritical propellant component is a Pressure reduction experiences.
- the propellant component further comprises a hydrophobic co-component, which is soluble in supercritical CO 2 at a pressure of> 150 bar, is not soluble in subcritical CO 2 at a pressure of ⁇ 40 bar and not soluble in the matrix-forming component and further in a Proportion of> 3% by weight to ⁇ 35% by weight of the blowing agent component.
- the publication further relates to an emulsion-type composition to be used herein and a foamed material obtainable by the method.
- the urethane reaction does not begin during the pressure below the critical pressure of the gaseous propellant used (preferably not for CO 2) below 100 bar) in order to avoid premature foaming. This is ensured by the injection of the reaction mixture into a reaction space which has the required pressure and temperature conditions. These conditions in the reaction space are created in practice by the use of a so-called floating seal for separating the reaction space from a pressure chamber (pressure build-up, for example, by compressed air).
- the pressure can now be reduced (for example by opening a compressed air valve) or the volume can be increased in order to transfer the blowing agent from the supercritical to the gaseous state and thus induce foaming.
- the pressure conditions during the foaming process are decisive for various properties of the resulting foams (cell size, cell structure, porosity, bulk density, compressive strengths, dimensional stability, surface structure, etc.).
- the foaming process is to be preferred by increasing the volume of the reaction space in relation to the process of reducing the pressure in the reaction space, since the controlled increase in volume can also control the pressure, which, conversely, does not apply without restriction.
- the present invention has the object to provide for the production of a polymer foam, an apparatus and a method in which both the injection and the Foaming can proceed under controlled conditions.

- mixed end groups are present, that is to say siloxane end groups and OH end groups or OH end groups functionalized by reaction, such as methoxy groups.
- the siloxane terpolymer may be a monosiloxane group R 3 S1-O- or an oligo- or polysiloxane group R 3 Si-O- [R 2 Si-O] n - [AO] with, for example, n> 1 to ⁇ 100.
- the siloxane terpolymer can also be constructed according to R 3 Si-O-RSi [AO] -O- [R 2 Si-O] m -O-SiR 3 with, for example, m> 0 to ⁇ 10 or as a comb polymer according to R 3 Si-O- [RSi [AO]] - O- [R 2 Si-O] m -O-SiR 3 may be constructed with m + n> 0 to ⁇ 250.
- the radical R is preferably an alkyl group, in particular a methyl group.
- the group [AO] is a polyalkylene oxide radical, preferably polyethylene oxide and / or polypropylene oxide.
- the group [AO] can also be attached to the siloxane via a linking group such as C 3 H 6.
- the inventive method allows a controlled pressure reduction in the foam production. This allows a (reproducible) adjustment of cell size, cell structure, porosity, bulk density, compressive strengths, dimensional stability, the surface structure and / or other qualities of the foams.
- foams can also be produced in which the distribution of the bulk density is particularly homogeneous.
- particularly pressure-resistant foams can be produced.
- Another advantage of the process is the high reproducibility of the foam qualities obtained.
