ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for employment in thermoplastic foam extrusion utilizing a direct-injection extrusion process. Thermoplastic foam material is produced which is characterized by having relatively smooth external skin surfaces, and an internal cellular structure, by providing intensive cooling of the foam material immediately upon its issuance from an extrusion die orifice. Means are also provided for controlling the cooling rate utilizing an adjustable device which controls the rate of cooling air flow and air temperature within the extended foam tube.
