Natural polymers constitute the raw materials basis in this case.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The demands placed on the material are oriented towards the products established on the market. Low densities, good mechanical properties in terms of strength, elasticity and shock absorption, a low abrasion as well as a relative resistance to humidity are all required.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The process for the\u00a0moulded\u00a0part production shall permit the manufacturing of three-dimensional parts of complex geometry. The particles must expand to a maximum and be welded together into a compact\u00a0moulded\u00a0part. For this purpose, a suitable, expandable granulated material must be developed which is processed into a\u00a0moulded\u00a0foam part in a\u00a0moulding\u00a0tool during a foaming process.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Petrochemical polymers, in particular expanded polystyrene (EPS), and expanded polypropylene (EPP), represent the most significant share of the materials used in the production of particle foam\u00a0moulded\u00a0parts. A comparable, bio-based material (polylactide\u00a0&#8211; PLA) has been on the market since 2010,\u00a0BioFoam\u00ae from the Dutch company\u00a0Synbra. It is the case that the manufacturing costs of the\u00a0moulded\u00a0parts and the raw material price of PLAs are significantly higher than for petrochemical and natural polymers such as starch. In the field of starch-based foam materials, extrusion-foamed materials, such as loose-fill packaging materials, are established as competitive products. In contrast to this, the advantages of particle foam include a significantly higher added\u00a0value,\u00a0they are mostly designed and manufactured for high-quality goods, such as electrical devices. The project interaction and the partners involved allows for a rapid industrial implementation when the development comes to a successful end.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The aim is to develop a particle foam for the production of molded parts.
