  • Patent number: 6638985
    Abstract: A continuous method for making foams having uniform and/or small cell sizes and articles made with these foams are described. The method allows for adjusting or controlling cell size and cell size distribution by controlling temperature and/or blowing agent concentration. The foams feature small and/or uniform cell sizes and may be comprised of amorphous thermoplastic polymers, pressure sensitive adhesive compositions, and immiscible thermoplastic polymer compositions. A method for coextruding the foams is also described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 27, 2001
    Date of Patent: October 28, 2003
    Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties Co.
