Increases the drawdown property (sagging of the sheet) when vacuum forming the foamed sheet, but on the other hand, the heat resistance deteriorates and the unfoamed / unstretched film (CPP) described later ) Cannot be avoided.

The mixture obtained by adding a pyrolytic foaming agent or a volatile foaming agent B to the polyolefin mixture A is foamed 1.5 to 3 times by extrusion foaming with an extruder P to have a thickness K = 1. A foam sheet C of 3 mm or more is obtained. Here, the reason why the expansion ratio is limited to 1.5 to 3 times is that the expansion ratio is 1.5 times.
If the ratio is less than twice, the heat insulating performance is prevented from being deteriorated and the cost is prevented from increasing.

The reason why the thickness K of the foam sheet C is required to be 1.3 mm or more is that if the thickness is smaller than this, the heat insulating property (the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the container is small) becomes poor, and the sheet cannot be held in the hand. There is a problem. However, if the thickness is too large, it leads to an increase in cost.

An unfoamed / unstretched polypropylene film D having a thickness of 0.03 mm or more is laminated or laminated on one or both sides of the foamed sheet C to form a composite sheet E.
To form The reason why the stretched polypropylene film (OPP) was avoided as the film D was that the film was not stretched during vacuum forming and could not be used.

As a method for attaching the film D to the foamed sheet C, an extrusion lamination method, a heat fusion method, a hot melt method, or the like is used. The reason why the thickness of the film D is set to 0.03 mm or more is that if the thickness is less than this, there is a difficulty in laminating the film D to the foam sheet C.

After softening to 0 ° C., vacuum forming is performed in a container mold (not shown), and the container F is formed. At this time, generally,
As shown in the drawing, when the film D is attached to one surface of the foam sheet C, the surface of the film D is set to the inner surface of the container F, but may be set to the outer surface in some cases.

Comparative Example 2 In Example 1, 10
When it was set to 0%, the specific gravity of the foamed sheet was 0.65, and the expansion ratio was 1.4 times. The thickness of the foam sheet is 1.1m
m, the drawdown at the time of vacuum forming was large, and the container was large in uneven thickness. As a result of the heat insulation test, when the temperature of the content liquid was 120 ° C., the temperature of the outer wall surface was 105 ° C., and the inner and outer temperatures were only 15 ° C., and could not be held by hand.
