As expandable polymer particles, expandable polystyrene resin particles are well known, and by using these particles, a molded foamed article can be easily obtained at low cost. However, since the monomer constituting the polymer is styrene, this foamed molded product requires heat resistance for use in relatively high-temperature pipe insulation materials, roof insulation materials, automobile parts, insulation materials for solar systems, etc. There are drawbacks that prevent it from being used for certain purposes. Furthermore, when used in combination with other materials, particularly in automobile parts, etc., it also has the disadvantage that it is difficult to select an adhesive material because of poor solvent resistance.

Therefore, in order to obtain expandable thermoplastic polymer particles having sufficient heat resistance and solvent resistance for practical use, the present inventors
The monomer composition constituting the polymer is 10% by weight or more of alpha methylstyrene and 5% of acrylonitrile.
It was thought that it was necessary to obtain copolymer particles containing the above-mentioned resin particles and to incorporate an easily volatile blowing agent into the resin particles. However, after pre-foaming such expandable thermoplastic copolymer particles, molding is performed to obtain a foamed molded product, and when the foamed molded product is left under high temperature, dimensional changes in the foamed molded product occur. Although there is almost no foaming, unsightly irregularities (hereinafter referred to as tertiary foaming) occur on the surface of the molded product due to the expansion of the foamed particles forming the surface layer of the molded product.
It has become clear that the aesthetic appearance has been severely damaged.

The present inventors have discovered expandable thermoplastic copolymer particles that provide a foamed molded article with excellent heat resistance that does not cause foaming and has almost no dimensional change, and has completed the present invention.

In addition, acrylonitrile used in the present invention is necessary to make the foam exhibit oil resistance, and conventionally, it has been difficult to obtain a high polymerization conversion rate in suspension polymerization using a large amount of alpha methylstyrene. However, it has been made possible by using acrylonitrile in combination. If the amount of acrylonitrile used is less than 5% by weight, the polymerization conversion rate of the composition will be low and the oil resistance will not be effective, which is not preferable. Further, even if it is used in an amount exceeding 50% by weight, the polymerization conversion rate does not change and the resin is colored yellowish brown, which is not preferable.

This is because the copolymer of the present invention has oil resistance due to the monomer used. Conventionally, when coating expandable styrene resin particles with edible oil that is liquid at room temperature, cracks occur on the particle surface, the blowing agent in the particles quickly evaporates, or during pre-foaming. There was a problem in usage as a large amount of blocking occurred. However, in the present invention, when the above composition is coated with an edible oil that is liquid at room temperature, there are no problems such as cracking on the particle surface or rapid dissipation of the blowing agent in the particle. A remarkable effect was obtained in suppressing tertiary foaming of the foamed molded article obtained using the particles.

Among these, the above effects are particularly noticeable by using lower acid type fats and oils such as coconut oil and palm kernel oil, which have a fatty acid composition of 12 carbon atoms or more and contain 40% by weight or more of the fatty acid composition constituting the edible oil. Sometimes there is no increase in blocking. The amount of such edible oil used is preferably 0.01 to 1.0% by weight based on the expandable thermoplastic copolymer particles.
