摘要

Process and apparatus for the preparation of foam articles by extruding a heat-plastified foamable gel through a die orifice (14) into a zone of reduced pressure in a shaping channel wherein the gel is supported on a cushion of gas at the die face (24) and at least in the area of the channel near the orifice of the die and a restraining force is applied to the foam in the area where the foam surface has cooled to provide foams having an enlarged cross-sectional area.
