Abstract
The present invention discloses a vinylidene chloride resin type in-mold foam molding having a broad cross-sectional area and a free shape, which is useful as thermal insulating plate materials or as anti-shock molded vessels, and also to foam particles, which are or expandable particles convenient for the preparation thereof. The present invention is also related to a series of advantageous foaming techniques for completion of such a molding. The above foam molding can be prepared by contacting fine particles of a non-crystalline vinylidene chloride type resin obtained generally by suspension polymerization with a volatile organic blowing agent thereby impregnating the resins with the blowing agent to form expandable resin particles, which are in turn subjected to expansion as such, or after forming into pre-expanded foam particles including expandable gas therein, by filling in a mold cavity which can be closed but not sealed, under heating to form a molding through a mutual fusion between the expanded particles.
