Foam Injection Moulding of PE/EVA Blends with an Azodicarbonamide Agent

The main purposes of this work are the technical investigation of polymer melt interactions of a well-designed PE/EVA blend with an azodicarbonamide foaming agent and the evaluation of the final characteristics of the foamed products. The investigation is mainly focused on the material characterization of the PE/EVA blend with Differential Scanning Calorimetry, taking samples from the virgin materials and from the injection moulded parts.
