ABSTRACT:
A method of forming relatively large objects, such as refrigerator liners, by a solid phase forming process from crystalline-type synthetic resins, such as polypropylene. The invention comprehends utilization of stretch forming, vacuum forming, and pressure forming techniques in combination with controlled heating of different portions of the billet to provide desired differential thicknesses in different portions of the liner. The invention further comprehends the provision of the liner with biaxial molecular orientation in portions thereof subject to shock impact forces.
