Abstract:
Verfahren zur Herstellung von perlförmigen expandierbaren Styrolpolymerisaten durch Polymerisation von Styrol, gegebenenfalls unter Mitverwendung weiterer Comonomerer, in wäßriger Suspension in Gegenwart von Suspensionsstabilisatoren und üblicher styrollöslicher Polymerisationskatalysatoren und unter Zusatz eines Treibmittels und 0,01 bis 1 Gew.% eines Polyolefins, welches 1 bis 20 Gew.% Carboxylgruppen enthält.
Abstract:
Expandable polystyrene contains up to 40 wt.% recycled polystyrene. It is obtd. by dissolving the recycled material in styrene monomer and polymerising this soln. in aq. suspension, with addn. of finely-divided polyethylene wax (I) and/or a mol.wt. regulator (II) during polymerisation. Pref. the material is treated with 0.05-1.0 wt.% (I) and/or 10-5000 ppm (II). (I) has a Mn of 2000-6000. (II) is dimerised alpha -methylstyrene.

Date Mar. 6, 1997A continuous process for preparing bead-form expandable styrene polymers in which the styrene is prepolymerized in bulk to a conversion of 10 to 80%, the prepolymer is dispersed in liquid form in an aqueous phase in the presence of suspension stabilizers, and the polymerization of the prepolymer is completed in an aqueous suspension to a residual styrene content of less than 2000 ppm.
Abstract:
The invention relates to expandable styrene polymers containing a) a styrene polymer, b) and at least one carbon dioxide absorber, mixed or copolymerized with the above, in an amount of from 0.01 to 50% by weight, based on the sum of a) and b), and c) a blowing agent or blowing agent mixture in an amount of from 0.5 to 12% by weight, where the blowing agent or blowing agent mixture comprises c1) from 10 to 100% by weight of carbon dioxide and c2) from 0 to 90% by weight of at least one further blowing agent. The invention furthermore relates to the styrene polymers containing a carbon dioxide absorber, to the styrene polymer foams obtainable from the expandable styrene polymers, and to an improved process for impregnating styrene polymers with carbon dioxide-containing blowing agents or blowing agent mixtures.
