ABSTRACT:
Thermoplastic articles with highly porous cores and less porous or nonporous skins are injection-molded with the aid of a nozzle having a flow divider disposed upstream of its aprue for splitting the oncoming plastic mass into a homogeneous outer stream and an inner stream admixed with a foaming agent, the two streams merging inside the gate of a mold cavity. The foaming agent enters through a central channel which may be provided with one or more ducts alternately usable to introduce pressure fluid and coolant into the cavity lined with coalescing layers of nonfoamed and foamed plastic. The flow divider may be axially movable within the nozzle to serve as a control valve and flow regulator.
