<p>A process for making a container comprises injection molding a polymer preform having a non-reactive gas entrapped within the walls thereof; cooling the preform to a temperature below the polymer softening temperature, the cooled preform having an initial material volume; reheating the cooled preform to a temperature greater than the polymer softening temperature; and blow molding the reheated preform, to prepare a container consisting essentially of a microcellular foamed polymer having a non-reactive gas contained within the foam cells, wherein the material volume of the container is greater than the initial material volume of the cooled preform measured at the same temperature.</p> |
