The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of expandable polystyrene comprising the following steps :
- i°) heating an aqueous suspension comprising styrene monomer and at least one organic peroxide initiator of formula (I) 1-alkoxy-1-t-alkylperoxycyclohexane in which the alkoxy group contains 1 to 4 carbon atoms, the t-alkyl group contains 4 to 12 carbon atoms, and the cyclohexane ring may optionally be substituted with 1 to 3 alkyl groups each, independently having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, at a temperature ranging from 100°C to 120°C,
- ii°) adding a blowing agent selected from the group consisting of alkanes having from 4 to 6 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof.
The invention also relates to an expandable polystyrene obtainable according to such a process and to insulation parts and packaging comprising such an expandable polystyrene.
本发明涉及一种制备可膨胀聚
苯乙烯的工艺,包括以下步骤 :
- i°) 在 100°C 至 120°C 的温度下,加热包含
苯乙烯单体和至少一种式(I)1-烷氧基-1-t-烷基过氧
