A method and apparatus for spreading a foamable composition for forming a polyurethane foam. The foamable composition is uniformly spread on all of a surface which is moved by scattering the foamable composition uniformly in its transversal direction. The foamable composition is fed to spread on a first surface and then, the foamable composition is scattered from the first surface as fine particles to the second surface. For example, the foamable composition (10) is fed to spread on a pair of rotated spreading rolls and then, the foamable composition is scattered as fine particles by a pair of rotated scattering rolls (3), (4) which are respectively contacted with the spreading rolls. This can be used for preparing a polyurethane foam sheet or a laminated product having a polyurethane foam layer.
In a method for spreading a foamable composition for a polyurethane foam on surfaces which are relatively moved, an improvement characterized by premixing the ingredients needed to form said foamable composition, feeding and spreading said foamable composition on a first moving surface, and then, scattering said foamable composition at the time being further foamable in a form of fine particles from said first surface on a second surface which is relatively moved, and wherein the step of scattering said foamable composition on said first surface in a form of fine particles is carried out by using a first roll having a fibrous layer which is rotated under contacting with said first surface, and wherein additional scattering is carried out by using a second rotating roll, located below said first roll having a fibrous layer, but out of contact with said first roll.
