PRESSURE AND VACUUM FORMABLE FOAM FOIL FOR LINING THE INTERIOR SPACES OF MOTOR VEHICLES

摘要

A vacuum- and pressure-deformable foam sheet comprising a foam layer with a decorative layer applied thereupon and, if appropriate, a primer layer as well as further layers, for interior linings of vehicles is described. This sheet is distinguished by the fact that the foam layer has a) a density of about 25 to 200 kg/m<3>, b) an elongation at break in accordance with DIN 53571 of at least about 50 % and c) a compression stress value in accordance with DIN 53577 of at least 50 kPa (under 50 % strain). The foam layer preferably consists of a polyolefin. This vacuum- and pressure-deformable foam sheet does not require any PVC material for its foam layer, which eliminates disposal problems. By virtue of the low weight, there is little scrap in its further processing. It is distinguished by good mechanical properties and meets the demanding supply conditions of the automobile industry. ……
