If it is forcibly pushed, the foam will be broken and fall apart, and will no longer serve as a filler, resulting in very poor workability.

いと言う問題もある。[0004] When it is molded into chips and filled in a container such as a box to protect the contents in the box, it is difficult to completely fill the box without any gaps at the beginning. Refilling of the body occurs, creating gaps that cannot adequately protect the contents of the box, causing damage or breakage of the contents. By using the injection foaming method (Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, 1974, Plastic Foam Handbook P.200) in which liquid is injected into the hollow portion of the panel and then foamed, the foam can be filled without problems even in a narrow space. Since it is a liquid, there is a problem in handleability, and there is also a problem that it is difficult to form a foam other than a gap continuous with the injection port.

は、形状回復性を有する独立気泡樹脂発泡体からなる成
形体が、少なくとも一方向から圧縮された状態に保持さ
れている構成とした。In order to achieve such an object, in the compressed foam according to the invention described in claim 1, a molded body made of a closed-cell resin foam having a shape recovering property is at least formed. It is configured to be held in a compressed state from one direction.

な形状回復は起こらず、圧縮を解除すると樹脂の弾性回
復力により気泡の内外圧力と釣り合いながら徐々にもと
の厚さに回復してゆく性質を持つものを言う。In the structure of claim 1, the closed cell resin foam having a shape recovering property means that when compressive strain is applied, the internal pressure of the closed cells forming the foam rises, and immediately after removing the external force. The foam instantly recovers to its original shape, but if the strain is maintained for a predetermined time or longer, the gas permeability of the resin causes the gas in the bubbles to gradually escape from the bubble film, and the internal pressure and the external pressure balance, Even if the external force is removed, instantaneous shape recovery does not occur, and when the compression is released, it has the property of gradually recovering to the original thickness while being balanced with the internal and external pressure of the bubbles by the elastic recovery force of the resin.

Therefore, the initial compression is not limited to the case of compressing in the complete elastic region, and partly plastic deformation. You may compress including the area | region to perform. The closed cell rate of the closed cell resin foam is determined by the amount of recovery required for the compressed foam itself, and can be used if it is approximately 5% or more, but a particularly preferable range is 60% to 100%. is there.
