Abstract
Prefoamed polymer particles having excellent moldability are produced by a process comprising a step (impregnating step) of impregnating carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide and a volatile blowing agent in polymer particles, a step (dispersing step) of dispersing the polymer particles into a dispersion medium in a sealed vessel, a step (heating step) of heating the polymer particles to a temperature higher than the softening point of said polymer particles, and a step (releasing step) of opening one end of said vessel and simultaneously releasing the polymer particles and dispersion medium from inside the vessel to an atmosphere held at a pressure lower than that of the vessel. In this process, the impregnating step, dispersing step and heating step need not be altogether effected separately. These steps can be performed simultaneously in one and the same vessel.
