Verfahren zum Herstellen eines Polsters aus Papierabfall oder Pulpe.

摘要

The objective of this invention is to provide a paper molded cushion (10) having a sufficient shock absorbing ability without substantial deformation even if the shape of the cushion is very complex. The process comprises the steps of mechanically fluffing waste paper or pulp, adding an adhesive to the fluff paper or pulp, mixing the mixture until they are uniformly mixed, casting said mixture in a mold (2), heating said mold by dielectric heating or micro wave heating until the molded paper cushion reaches the predetermined water content and taking out the paper cushion from the mold. It is also possible to heat and dry the molded paper product under reduced pressure condition for accelerating the water evaporation or to add a small amount of foamable synthetic plastic particles with the adhesive for making voids inside the molded paper cushion consequently the weight of the paper cushion is effectively reduced and the shock absorbing ability is increased. Further if a shape of the product is complex, the mold may be divided into plurality of parts (20,22,24) and the molded paper parts (11,12,13) are assembled to form the final shape of the paper cushion.
