Process for preparing biodegradable resin foam
First Claim
1. A process for producing a biodegradable resin foam, comprising the steps of mixing a starch polymer containing from 5% by weight to 30% by weight of water, a vinyl alcohol resin containing from 5% by weight to 30% by weight of water, a nonionic surfactant and an inorganic or organic filler;
- optionally adjusting the water content of the mixture, to prepare a composition having from 5% by weight to 30% by weight of water on the whole, based on the total weight of the composition;
melting and expanding it to prepare a foam.

Abstract
A process for producing a biodegradable resin foam, having the steps of mixing a starch polymer containing from 5% by weight to 30% by weight of water, a vinyl alcohol resin containing from 5% by weight to 30% by weight of water, a nonionic surfactant, an inorganic or organic filler, and optionally a thickening agent; optionally adjusting the water content of the mixture, to prepare a composition having from 5% by weight to 30% by weight of water on the whole, based on total weight of the composition; melting and expanding it to prepare a foam, which has a low density and fine closed cells, and shows a good surface condition in a molded body.
