The Effect Nucleating Agent on Open-Celled Morphology of Polymer in Vibration

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this work is to analysis on cell morphology of polymer blends foam in different nucleating agent and vibration field. The addition of the nucleating agent promote the nucleating and improve the density of foam. The vibration influences the nucleating agent distribution in the polymer matrix. At the same time, the vibration make the walls between cells thinned, the bubble merged.
