<p>Disclosed is a process for preparing a low density closed-cell polymer foam comprising a plurality of closed-cells having an average cell size of at least about 0.08 millimeter characterized in that the process comprises the steps of heat plastifying an expandable or foamable monovinyl aromatic polymer formulation comprising a non-linear monovinyl aromatic polymer composition and an environmentally acceptable blowing agent; and reducing the pressure on the mixture to form a foam. A stable monovinyl aromatic polymer foam prepared from a non-linear styrenic polymer composition and environmentally acceptable blowing agents is also disclosed.</p> |
