ABSTRACT:
A method for producing a crosslinked, uniformly expanded article of thermoplastic resin is provided.
Thermoplastic resin containing a crosslinking agent and a foaming agent is extruded through a long-land die which is provided with a choking orifice at an end and/or an intermediate portion thereof; a lubricant is provided on the inner surface of the long-land die; the crosslinking agent is decomposed in the long-land die to lower the flow rate of the resin and the foaming agent is decomposed or heated to its boiling point in the long-land die to provide an expandable resin and the crosslinked, expandable resin is then released into an atmospheric or controlled pressure zone to produce the uniform, finely expanded article.
