Foamed synthetic resin molded body and method for producing same
09566755 · 2017-02-14 · ·

Provided is a method for producing a foamed synthetic resin molded body. In this method, in the case where a hole-like portion is a through hole, when foam molding is performed, the occurrence of molding defects such as voids at the periphery of the hole-like portion can be sufficiently prevented or suppressed without forming a burr portion that closes the hole-like portion. Also in this method, in the case where the hole-like portion is a non-through hole, the occurrence of molding defects such as voids at a bottom portion of the hole-like portion can be sufficiently prevented or suppressed.

Surface Infusion of Flexible Cellular Foams With Novel Liquid Gel Mixture

Compositions and methods for making a novel liquid gel mixture comprising at least one flexible polymer carrier, parachlorobenzotrifluoride, optional thermally-conductive materials, and optional performance-enhancing additives; using the liquid gel mixture for making surface-infused layers on layering substrates; and using combinations of surface-infused gel layer and layering substrate in cushioning foams and mattresses. Layering substrates are surface-infused with a liquid gel mixture and may be compressed to increase the penetration depth of liquid gel mixture into the substrate layer surface. This compositions may be used in mattresses, mattress topper pads, pillows, bedding products, furniture upholstery, pet beds, medical cushioning foams, seat cushions and backs, automotive foam, sports cushioning, transportation cushioning, headrests, arm rests, personal protective equipment, toys, and the like.
