Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is an unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores. The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet of the present invention comprises: a metal sheet; an organic-inorganic pretreatment layer containing an acrylic resin formed on the metal sheet; and a foam resin layer formed on the pretreatment layer, the foam resin layer containing, based on weight % thereof, a thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride resin: 40-80%, a plasticizer: 5-40%, a foaming agent: 0.1-10%, an oxide-based crosslinker: 1-4%, and spherical silica: 1-10%.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1 . An unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores, comprising: a metal sheet; an organic-inorganic pretreatment layer containing a blend of an acrylic resin combined with inorganic substance formed on the metal sheet; and a foam resin layer formed on the pretreatment layer, wherein the foam resin layer contains, based on weight % thereof, a thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride resin: 40 to 80%, a plasticizer: 5 to 40%, a foaming agent: 0.1 to 10%, an oxide-based crosslinker: 1 to 4%, and spherical silica: 1 to 10%, and wherein a thickness of the foam resin layer ranges from 5 to 80 μm. 2 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein the foaming agent is a powder foaming agent or a foamed capsule. 3 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 2 , wherein the powder foaming agent is an azodicarbonamide-based powder foaming agent. 4 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 2 , wherein the foamed capsule has a diameter of 1 to 20 μm in which a foaming agent is contained in a thermoplastic cell structure. 5 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein the foam resin layer has a foam pore having an average diameter of 5 to 100 μm. 6 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the pretreatment layer ranges from 0.1 to 2 μm. 7 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein the metal sheet is one selected from a cold-rolled steel sheet, a hot-rolled steel sheet, a galvanized steel sheet, a zinc alloy-plated steel sheet, a stainless steel sheet, and an aluminum plate. 8 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein the oxide-based crosslinker is dicumyl peroxide. 9 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein an average diameter of the spherical silica has a size ranging from 1 to 30 μm. 10 . The unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores of claim 1 , wherein the plasticizer is one selected from the group consisting of bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (DEHA), dimethyl adipate (DMAD), monomethyl adipate (MMAD), dioctyl adipate (DOA), dibutyl sebacate (DBS), dibutyl maleate (DBM), diisobutyl maleate (DIBM), and trimethyl pentanyl diisobutylate. 11 . A method for manufacturing an unconstrained vibration damping metal sheet with foam pores, the method comprising: preparing a base metal sheet; forming a pretreatment layer with a thickness of 0.1 to 2 μm by applying an organic-inorganic pretreatment solution containing a blend of an acrylic resin combined with inorganic substance on the base metal sheet and then curing the organic-inorganic pretreatment solution at 60 to 150° C.; and forming a foam resin layer by applying a foam resin solution, which contains, based on weight % thereof, a thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride resin: 40 to 80%, a plasticizer: 5 to 40%, a foaming agent: 0.1 to 10%, an oxide-based crosslinker: 1 to 4%, and spherical silica: 1 to 10%, on the formed pretreatment layer to a thickness of 5 to 80 μm and foaming the foam resin solution in a temperature range of 200 to 220° C.
