2. Description of the Related Art Polystyrene resins are generally transparent,
It has excellent heat resistance and mechanical strength, and because it has good moldability, it is used in many fields such as household products and electric appliances. Further, the foam of polystyrene resin has characteristics such as surface gloss, lightness, heat insulating property and cushioning property, and its field of use varies depending on the thickness of the foam. A sheet of polystyrene-based resin foam with a thickness of about 3 mm or less is called polystyrene paper (PSP). It is easy to mold, and features such as cushioning and heat insulation are used for pre-packaging. It is widely used mainly for lunch boxes, bowls, cups, and as a partition for confectionery boxes, etc., but it is required to have excellent secondary heat moldability from the viewpoint of improving productivity.

A polystyrene-based resin foam sheet is a foamable polystyrene-based resin impregnated with a foaming agent composed of an aliphatic hydrocarbon such as butane and pentane, and a halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbon such as trichloromonofluoromethane and methyl chloride. It is produced by a method of directly extruding particles into a sheet by an extruder or a method of extruding the particles into a sheet while pressing the above-mentioned foaming agent into a polystyrene resin melted in the extruder. The polystyrene-based resin foam sheet thus obtained is secondarily foamed by a heater and then vacuum-molded by a plug assist method, pressure-molded or press-molded to be used as a container. In general, polystyrene-based resin, when secondary processing of the extruded sheet, when the heating distribution state to the sheet is non-uniform and when the molding is performed with insufficient heating, the sheet is torn or the uneven thickness portion is generated. If it occurs, the strength of the molded product will be insufficient, and the appearance will be impaired.

In particular, when molding a foam using a foamed sheet, in the heating secondary foam molding step, there is a temperature distribution in the heating furnace and the fluctuation of the outside air temperature causes the sheet Insufficient heating of all or part of the sheet may cause the sheet to break during molding, the mold regularity may deteriorate, or conversely, excessive heating may cause the surface of the molded product to become keloid-like, or the thickness of the molded product may fluctuate. The phenomenon occurs. In order to prevent the occurrence of such keloid-like burns, there are known methods such as increasing the molecular weight of the raw material polystyrene-based polymer, sticking a film on the surface of the sheet, and forming a layer having a high resin density, a so-called skin layer. ing. However, such a method may lead to a decrease in productivity, and may cause defects such as vibration of a die and a mandrel at the time of extruding a sheet and scratches on the sheet surface. Further, when such a polymer is used for deep drawing, sheet breakage is likely to occur.

Further, in order to obtain a foam having good moldability during molding, a method is known in which the molecular weight of the raw polystyrene polymer is reduced or a plasticizer and a lubricant are added to the raw polystyrene polymer. . However, this method has a problem that the mechanical strength of the sheet is lowered and the heat resistance is lowered. On the other hand, it has excellent injection molding and extrusion moldability,
Moreover, regarding the molding of the foamed sheet, as a measure for improving the heating secondary processability, for example, a foam made of a resin having a ratio Mw / Mn of the weight average molecular weight Mw to the number average molecular weight Mn of 3.0 or more is used. Are described in JP-A-62-22834.

However, the fact that the ratio Mw / Mn of the weight average molecular weight Mw and the number average molecular weight Mn of the resin is wide means that the definition of the average molecular weight means that the broadening of the molecular weight mainly extends to the low molecular weight side. This means that the polystyrene resin foam having a wide distribution in the low-molecular region has a drawback that its strength is essentially low. Moreover, in the description of JP-A No. 62-22834, the step of adding a catalyst, a chain transfer agent, etc. during the polymerization is complicated. In addition, generally the weight average molecular weight
In order to increase Mw, it is necessary to carry out polymerization at a low temperature for a long time, which is not advantageous in terms of productivity. Further, JP-A-3-111434 and JP-A-3-111435 propose the use of a polystyrene resin polymerized with an initiator containing a long-chain alkyl. However, the decomposition temperature of this initiator is as low as around 80 ° C., and the polymerization temperature has to be lowered for commercial use, and the viscosity of the polymerization solution becomes high, and it is long as in Examples. It requires polymerization time and has a difficulty in productivity, which is not practical.
