The foam article is prepared by foaming an expandable resin composition between the fiber reinforcing material and facing sheets. The resin has a predetermined viscosity which is a direct function of the porosity of the reinforcing material and an indirect function of the foam initiation time.Field of SearchUniting spaced preforms or solidified layers by introducing foamable material therebetweenComposite article making Incorporating particulate material, fibers, or batts in a random distribution within a foamed body Autogenously formed surface layer or base supplies surface (e.g., skin forming, etc.) Between at least two moving surfaces With roller applied pressure One component is a fibrous or textile sheet, web, or batt Shaping material and uniting to a preform or solidified layer Utilizing metal part or reinforcement Including surface treatment of porous body By gas forming or expanding Liquid to gas phase change Chemical blowing | |
