  • Publication number: 20160229975
    Abstract: The present invention relates to mouldings and processes for producing the same. In particular, the invention relates to foam mouldings and methods of making the same comprising providing a first amount of expandable foam particles and providing a second amount of expandable foam particles and preparing a physical mixture on the basis of the first and second amount of foam particles and introducing the mixture into a mould and sintering under pressure and heat, for example, where the chemical origin of the first amount of expandable foam particles differs from the chemical origin of the second amount of foam particles, and optionally further comprising the presence of a coating in the mixture before the introduction of the mixture into the mould.
