Internal manifold that aids in filling molds

摘要

A process of forming buoyant structures is disclosed, whereby a manifold is positioned in a buoyant structure mold so as to define a space therein that is devoid of buoyant bodies. The mold can then be filled with a resin/microsphere mix that meets minimal resistivity in the devoid space along the length of the manifold. A reduction in mold fill-time is achieved. The resulting buoyant bodies exhibit improved quality.
