Abstract

See full text

A method of compression molding a plastic article, such as a closure, includes providing a molten polymeric material, comprising a mixture of at least one molten polymer and a gas blended therein. The polymeric material is molded between cooperating male and female molds, with relative movement of the molds controlled to form a mold cavity with a predetermined volume. Formation in this manner acts to produce a molded closure with substantially reduced density, thus achieving desired material savings, while still providing a closure or like article exhibiting desired performance characteristics.
