Abstract

Rotational molding of polyethylene foams has increasingly become an important process in industry because of their thicker walls, lower sound transfer, higher stiffness and good thermal insulation. However the foaming process of polyethylene in rotational molding has not been well studied. The focus of this research is to examine the rotomoldability of foamed polyethylene and their molded product properties. Characterization of powder and molded part properties has been performed. In addition the role of blowing agent on the process was studied.
