Abstract:
The present invention is concerned with expanded propylene resin beads including a core layer being in a foamed state, having a tubular shape, and being constituted of a propylene-based resin composition (a) satisfying the following (i) and (ii) and a cover layer being constituted of an olefin-based resin (b) satisfying the following (iii) or (iv). (i) A mixture of 75% by weight to 98% by weight of a propylene-based resin (a1) having a melting point of 100° C. to 140° C. and 25% by weight to 2% by weight of a propylene-based resin (a2) having a melting point of 140° C. to 165° C. (ii) A difference between the melting point of the resin (a2) and the melting point of the resin (a1) is 15° C. or more. (iii) A crystalline olefin-based resin having a melting point TmB that is lower than a melting point TmA of the composition (a) and having a relation of 0° C.<[TmA−TmB]≤80° C. (iv) A non-crystalline olefin-based resin having a softening point TsB that is lower than TmA and having a relation of 0° C.<[TmA−TsB]≤100° C.

Claim (Index 4):
The expanded propylene resin beads according to  claim 1 , wherein the propylene-based resin (a1) and the propylene-based resin (a2) each is a propylene-based resin obtained through polymerization in the presence of a metallocene-based polymerization catalyst.
