Abstract:
Foam moldings of olefin polymers are prepared by heating, and pressing together, foamed particles of an olefin polymer, containing crosslinked constituents, in molds, a temperature gradient of from 0.5.degree. to 25.degree. C per cm of loose mass of particles being established in the mold, which has a gas-permeable wall on the lower-temperature side.
Abstract:
Shaped articles are produced by heating and compressing particles of foamed olefin polymer containing crosslinked portions in molds, the pressure being reduced during compression in the mold.
Abstract:
Tubeless automobile tires filled with foam, the foam used being closed-cell foamed particles of a partially crystalline olefin polymer of olefins of from 2 to 6 carbon atoms.
