Abstract Bimodal cellular polymer foam is a special structural material in polymer foam materials. It has been widely studied and concerned in recent years. In supercritical fluid assisted batch foaming process, the pressure control of foaming system is the key factor to induce the nucleation and growth of bimodal cellular foam. Based on this, a multi-step pressure control polymer batch foaming system was constructed. The polystyrene foam with typical bimodal foam structure was prepared. The effects of different first step pressure drop, holding time of first step pressure drop and second step pressure drop on the foaming behavior of the polymer, and the thermal insulation properties of the prepared material were studied. The results show that when the saturation temperature is above 90 ℃ and the first step pressure drop is 3 MPa and 8 MPa, a good bimo-dal cell structure can be formed. The increase of saturation temperature and holding time of first step pressure drop can promote the growth of big cells, but have no effect on the growth of small cells. The foamed polystyrene foam with bimodal cellular structure has good thermal insulation properties, and the thermal conductivity of the foamed material with a maximum foaming rate of 47.27 is only 72 mW/(m·K).
