全球人口的迅速膨胀对食品供应链、资源、住房和交通带来了日益严峻的挑战,随之而来的是人们对可持续性和效率的需求不断上升。认为,先进的聚合物发泡技术在节省材料和能源的同时,保证了同样甚至更出色的产品性能。与非发泡聚合物相比,发泡材料还具有更明显的优势,如卓越的隔热、隔音效果以及缓冲和保护作用。一个大规模、多样化并不断发展的行业目前,聚合物发泡材料制造业每年消耗塑料约2 5万 The rapid global population expansion poses a growing challenge to the food supply chain, resources, housing and transport, with the consequent rise in demand for sustainability and efficiency. That advanced polymer foam technology saves material and energy while ensuring the same or even better product performance. Foams also have distinct advantages over non-foamed polymers such as superior thermal insulation, sound insulation and cushioning and protection. A Massive, Diversified and Evolving Industry At present, the polymer foams manufacturing industry consumes about 25,000 plastics each year
