A polypropylene-based resin expanded beads configured to include an NOR type hindered amine and has a surface on which a thermoplastic polymer layer is located, in which a blending ratio of the amine in the expanded beads is 0.03 wt % or more and 0.5 wt % or less, and a blending ratio of the amine in the thermoplastic polymer layer is less than the blending ratio of the amine in the expanded beads. Further, the method for producing the expanded beads includes a covering and foaming step, in which in the resin beads to be obtained in the covering step, a blending ratio of the amine in the resin beads is adjusted to be 0.03 wt % or more and 0.5 wt % or less, and a blending ratio of the amine in a thermoplastic polymer layer is adjusted to be lower than the blending ratio of the amine in the resin beads.

Polypropylene-based resin expanded beads and method for producing polypropylene-based resin expanded beads

A method for producing polypropylene-based resin expanded beads includes dispersion, blowing agent impregnation, and foaming steps. Beads used in the dispersion step include a core layer having a polypropylene-based resin as a base material resin, and a fusion-bonding layer covering core layer; the beads fusion-bonding layer includes carbon black and a NOR-type hindered amine; a carbon black blending ratio is adjusted to 0.5 wt % or more and 5 wt % or less; and an amine blending ratio of the beads is adjusted to 0.03 wt % or more and 0.5 wt % or less; the polypropylene-based resin expanded beads have a surface on which a fusion-bonding layer is located; the fusion-bonding layer includes the carbon black and hindered amine; a carbon black blending ratio is 0.5 wt % or more and 5 wt % or less; and a blending ratio of the hindered amine is 0.03 wt % or more and 0.5 wt % or less.

Method for producing polypropylene-based resin expanded beads and polypropylene-based resin expanded beads

A process produces a polyolefin-based resin expanded beads molded article that is excellent in bending deflection characteristics, high in porosity, low in bulk density and light in weight, and has interconnected void spaces. The process comprises filling, in a mold cavity, multi-layered polyolefin-based resin expanded beads each of which has a cylindrical, polyolefin-based resin expanded core layer and a polyolefin-based resin outer layer covering the expanded core layer and which satisfy specific requirements, introducing steam in the mold cavity to heat the multi-layered expanded beads filled in the mold cavity to fuse bond and mold the multi-layered expanded beads in the mold cavity.

Process for producing molded article of expanded polyolefin-based resin beads, and molded article of expanded polyolefin-based resin beads

A polypropylene resin foamed bead from which a foamed bead molded article excelling in appearance, heat resistance and mechanical properties can be obtained at the molding temperature lower than that for conventional polypropylene resin foamed beads; and a foamed bead molded article obtained by molding the same. The polypropylene resin foamed bead is characterized by having such a crystal structure that in the first DSC curve obtained when the temperature of the foamed bead sample is raised from ordinary temperature to 200&#xb0; C. at a temperature rising rate of 2&#xb0; C./min by a differential scanning calorimetry, there appear a main endothermic peak of 100&#xb0; to 140&#xb0; C. endothermic peak apex temperature exhibiting 70 to 95% endothermic peak calorific value based on the total endothermic peak calorific value and two or more endothermic peaks exhibited on the high temperature side with respect to the main endothermic peak.

Polypropylene resin foam particle and molding thereof

Foamed polyolefin resin beads having antistatic properties obtained by a process, which includes dispersing polyolefin resin beads into an aqueous medium, injecting a blowing agent, stirring and allowing the polyolefin resin beads to foam and expand. The polyolefin resin beads are composite resin beads comprising a core layer of a core layer polyolefin resin and a covering layer of a covering layer polyolefin resin.
