Test method for average cell size of rigid foam plastics
1 Scope
This document describes a method for determining the average cell size of rigid foam by calculating the number of cell wall intersections within a desired length.
The experimental methods are. Method A (projector method), Method B (optical microscope method), and Method C (scanning electron microscope method).
This document applies to the determination of the average cell size of rigid foam plastics. For the determination of the average cell size of other types of foam plastics, refer to [the relevant documentation].

3 Terms and Definitions
This document does not contain any terms or definitions that need to be defined.
4.Principles
4.1 Method A (Projector Method)
Foam plastic is cut into thin sheets using a slicer, with a thickness not exceeding 1 mm. The image of the thin sheets is then projected onto a screen using a projector, within the specified time frame.
Within the length, calculate the number of bubbles in the cross section, calculate the average chord length from this number, and then convert the average chord length into the average bubble size.
4.2 Method B (Optical Microscopy)
Cut the foam plastic to make its surface smooth. Observe it with an optical microscope and count the number of bubbles on the surface within a suitable length.
Calculate the average chord length, then convert it to the average cell size. When the cell walls are thick, the wall thickness needs to be considered when calculating the average chord length.
The impact.
4.3 Method C (Scanning Electron Microscopy)
The sample was prepared by breaking it into pieces using liquid nitrogen quenching, and a conductive thin layer was sputtered onto the quenched surface of the foam sample. This was then analyzed using scanning electron microscopy.
Observe and calculate the number of bubbles in the cross-section within a suitable length. Calculate the average chord length from this number, and then convert the average chord length into the average bubble size.
When the cell walls are thick, the effect of the wall thickness needs to be considered when calculating the average chord length.
