Experimental and simulation analysis of bubble deformation in foaming polypropylene

This paper investigates the bubble deformation in bubble growth using a self-made in situ visual injection molding device. The results show that the deformation degree of independent bubbles is kept within 0.015. Under the frame rate of 25 frames per second (FPS), it is found that adjacent bubbles w...

description This paper investigates the bubble deformation in bubble growth using a self-made in situ visual injection molding device. The results show that the deformation degree of independent bubbles is kept within 0.015. Under the frame rate of 25 frames per second (FPS), it is found that adjacent bubbles with the same average diameter simultaneously pass through the deformation critical point, while adjacent bubbles with different average diameters can’t pass through the critical deformation point at the same time. The interaction in the process of adjacent bubble growth is simulated by finite element software, radial migration of bubbles is suppressed, the hoop stretch of bubbles is enhanced, and the deformation sequence of adjacent bubbles is determined by bubble radius and bubble pressure. On the basis of the bubble influence zone model and the bubble deformation model, a bubble deformation response model is established, used to reflect adjacent bubbles’ deformation response speed.
