The invention relates to a process for the production of a composite component () which comprises a molding () made of a thermoplastic polymer foam and which comprises a functional layer () made of an unfoamed thermoplastic, comprising the following steps:

Method for producing a composite component

The invention relates to a method for transporting foamed thermoplastic polymer particles () from a container () through at least one pipe (), wherein, for transporting the foamed thermoplastic polymer particles (), a gas stream is applied through the pipe (). The foamed thermoplastic polymer particles () are wetted with a water comprising lubricant.

Method for transporting expanded thermoplastic polymer particles

The invention relates to a process for producing a composite structure comprising a main structure and an external shell connected to the main structure, where the main structure comprises a molded foam obtainable from prefoamed foam particles and the external shell comprises a hollow structure open at one end or at two opposite ends, and where a frictional connection is formed between the molded foam and the hollow structure.

Method for producing a composite body comprising a particle foam molded part connected to a hollow body in a force-closed manner

The invention relates to processes for the production of a composite component via multicomponent injection molding, where the composite component comprises a main body composed of a thermoplastic and an external layer composed of a foamed thermoplastic. The main body is produced via injection molding and subsequent hardening of the thermoplastic. A mixture of the foamed thermoplastic and a chemical blowing agent is injected onto the main body, subsequently hardened in the same injection mold, and foamed by heating. The composite component is solidified via cooling. The foamed thermoplastic is at least one polyamide whose modulus of elasticity is from 1 MPa to 250 MPa in the entire temperature range from 70&#xb0; C. to 180&#xb0; C. The chemical blowing agent is in non-polymerized form.
