Popis: Formula for microcellular unsaturated polyester using chemical foaming method was studied. With the increase of NaHCO3 content, the cell size of microcellular unsaturated polyester slightly decreased with the increase of styrene content in the range of 1-2 %. The cell size increased in the range of 2-4 %. With the increase of curing agent content, the cell size increased in the range of 0.5-0.9 % and decreased in the range of 0.9-1.3 %. The cell size decreased with the increase of styrene content in the range of 30-40 %. The cell size had little variation when styrene content was in the range of 40-50 %. The average cell size and cell density of microcellular unsaturated polyester were strongly affected by accelerant content. The cell size decreased with the increase of accelerant content. The opposite was for the cell density. The microcellular unsaturated polyester prepared at 2% NaHCO3, 0.3% accelerantt, 0.9% curing agent, 40% styrene had the small cell size, high cell density, and strong compression strength.
