Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To propose a method for producing a resin molded article having excellent shape accuracy and excellent strength performances by injection mold ing. SOLUTION: This method for producing the resin molded article, comprises foaming and molding a melted resin mixed with a foaming agent. The foaming agent has a property to endothermically chemically decompose to produce uniform fine bubbles 6, 6 as possible, in the melted resin. Since the bubbles 6, 6 produced in the melted resin are fine and uniform, the resin molded article having a good weight balance and the excellent strength performances can be obtained, even when the thin resin molded article is produced. Since the flowability of the melted resin is enhanced with the bubbles 6, 6 produced in the melted resin, the inner pressure of a mold is lowered. and the melted resin can be injected at a low pressure. Consequently, a small, light injection molding machine can be used, and the resin molded article free from swelling deformation caused by secondary foaming and having high shape accuracy is obtained.

However, in the foaming agent used in the conventional resin foam molding, the sizes of the bubbles generated by foaming in the resin material are not uniform and the foaming agent is not uniform in the resin material. It had a defect related to the shape and distribution of bubbles, and a characteristic defect that the foaming pressure of the foaming agent was relatively high.

That is, (a) since the distribution of air bubbles inside the resin material is non-uniform, the specific gravities are different among the parts of the impeller, and it is intended to use this as an impeller to ensure good rotation characteristics. If so, the adjustment of the rotational balance after molding becomes indispensable, and the manufacturing cost increases accordingly. (B) Since the sizes of the bubbles inside the resin material are not uniform, the strength performance between the parts of the impeller is high. Different, in some cases, a partial lack of strength,
The reliability as an impeller cannot be ensured. (C) Since the foaming pressure is relatively high, the foaming is not completed sufficiently in the mold alone, and secondary foaming occurs after the molded product is taken out of the mold, There are problems such as expansion and deformation, which impairs the shape accuracy.

According to FIG. 6, when the mixing ratio is 0%, that is, in normal injection molding without using a foaming agent, the internal pressure of the mold is as high as 230 Kg / cm 2 because the fluidity of the molten resin material is low. On the other hand, when the mixing ratio is 1.0%, the mold internal pressure is 106 kg / cm 2 , and when the mixing ratio is 2.0%, the mold internal pressure is 92 kg.
/ cm 2 , when the mixture ratio is 3.0%, the mold pressure is 88 kg / cm 2 ,
Each decreases. That is, the fluidity of the molten resin material is greatly improved by adding a small amount of the foaming agent, but the mixing ratio is 1.0% or more (that is, 2.0% or 3.0%).
And the like), the decrease rate of the in-mold pressure with respect to the increase of the mixing amount of the foaming agent is small (in other words, the fluidity improving effect is low for the increase of the foaming agent addition amount).

Further, regarding the region where the mixing ratio of the foaming agent is 1.0% or less, according to the technical data "Chemical foam injection molding technology" of "Nippon Boehringer Ingelheim Co., Ltd." The foaming agent is 0.1% to 0.2
There is a statement that the effect is exhibited at a mixing ratio of%, and such description is based on the result of the product test by the above-mentioned manufacturer, so long as the above-mentioned foaming agent (trade name: hydrocerol) is used, It is considered that the same effect can be obtained.

From the above examination, the inventor of the present application specifies the mixing ratio of the foaming agent used in the manufacturing method of the present invention to the molten resin material in the range of "0.1% to 1.0%".
By using the foaming agent in such a mixing ratio in such a range, an effect close to the maximum can be obtained with the minimum amount of the foaming agent added, which is extremely effective in practice.

On the other hand, in FIG.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a cross section of the blade 3 of the impeller 1 manufactured by injection molding by adding the molten resin material at a mixing ratio of “˜1.0%”. As can be seen from FIG. 3, this impeller 1
In the above, by using the above-mentioned foaming agent in the above-mentioned mixing ratio, a foamed structure in which the finest and finest microscopic cells 6, 6 ,. With such a foamed structure, in the impeller 1, even if the impeller 3 has a thin blade structure, there is almost no variation in the weight between the parts of the impeller 3, and the impeller 1
The weight balance as a whole is extremely good, and as a result, subsequent rotational balance adjustment is unnecessary or simplified, and the manufacturing cost of the impeller 1 can be reduced accordingly. Further, since the cells 6, 6, ... Have a foaming structure in which the cells 6, 6, ... Are evenly distributed, in the impeller 1, for example, there is almost no variation in the strength between the parts of the impeller 3 and the strength performance is excellent. It becomes a thing.
