This document discloses a process for manufacturing recyclable injection molded microcellular foams for use in, footwear components, seating components, protective gear components, and watersport accessories. The process includes the steps of providing a thermoplastic polymer which comprises at least one monomer derived from depolymerized post-consumer plastic, inserting a fluid into a barrel of a molding apparatus. The fluid is introduced under temperature and pressure conditions to produce a super critical fluid. The process further includes mixing the thermoplastic polymer and super critical fluid so as to create a single phase solution, and injecting the single phase solution into a mold of an injection molding machine under gas counter pressure. The process further includes foaming the single phase solution by controlling the head and temperature conditions within the mold.

A foaming apparatus for a paper container (90), including: a main body (10), a delivery mechanism, a plurality of supports (30), a heating mechanism (40), a cooling mechanism (50), a feeding mechanism (60), and a pick-up mechanism (70). The main body (10) is divided into a feeding and pick-up area (13), a preheating area (14), a heating area (15) and a cooling area (16) on a horizontal plane; the delivery mechanism includes a chain (21) in closed circulation; each of the supports (30) is provided with a supporting portion (32) and a base (31); the heating mechanism (40) is disposed on the preheating area (14) and the heating area (15) so as to heat same; the cooling mechanism (50) is disposed on the cooling area (16) so as to cool same; the feeding mechanism (60) and the pick-up mechanism (70) are separately disposed above the feeding and pick-up area (13). Therefore, the foaming apparatus for the paper container (90) can effectively reduce the size of a machine while ensuring sufficient path length to do separate the heating area (15) from the cooling area (16).

In an injection foam molding method, a relationship between a flow front moving speed (cm/s) of a foamed resin material in an injection step of injecting the foamed resin material into a cavity and amount of gas generated per 1 g of a resin material (ml/g) is defined as follows: the amount of gas generated per 1 g of the resin material is 0.36 ml/g or more; and the flow front moving speed (cm/s) is 75×the amount of gas generated per 1 g of the resin material (ml/g)−35 or more and 12 cm/s or more.

A vehicle interior board which is thin, lightweight, has high strength, has less degradation, peeling and the like near an end portion of a metal plate, and has high quality and excellent productivity; and a method for manufacturing the same. The vehicle interior board includes a pair of metal plates and a foamed polyurethane layer formed between the pair of metal plates. A projecting ridge projecting outwardly and extending in a predetermined direction along the outer surface is formed on an outer surface of the metal plate. Thus, it is possible to obtain desired strength and rigidity even when the metal plates or the foamed polyurethane layer are thinned or when a lightweight aluminum plate or the like is adopted as the metal plates. Therefore, it is possible to reduce weight of a vehicle interior board.
