Disclosed herein is a foam composition comprising an olefin copolymer that comprises ethylene and an &#x3b1;-olefin or propylene and an &#x3b1;-olefin; an unneutralized carboxylated olefin copolymer; a crosslinking agent; and a blowing agent; where the foam composition is substantially free from neutralized carboxylated ethylene copolymer. Disclosed herein too is a method of manufacturing a foam composition comprising blending together an olefin copolymer that comprises ethylene and an &#x3b1;-olefin or propylene and an &#x3b1;-olefin; an unneutralized carboxylated olefin copolymer; a crosslinking agent; and a blowing agent to form the foam composition; where the foam composition is substantially free from neutralized carboxylated ethylene copolymer; heating the foam composition to activate the blowing agent to form a foam; and crosslinking the foam.

Blends for foams, foams manufactured therefrom and articles comprising the same

The present disclosure is directed to a process for preparing foamed articles comprising at least one ethylene/&#x3b1;-olefin interpolymer and use of the foamed articles in various applications, such as footwear applications. The ethylene/&#x3b1;-olefin interpolymers of the present disclosure are multi-block copolymers comprising at least one soft block and at least one hard block.

An uncured acoustic absorbing member for cavity sealing comprises a thermally inert carrier () and a thermally expandable material () applied to the carrier (). The carrier () contains openings () which become covered when the thermally expandable material () is expanded to seal the cavity. The thermally expandable material () may be in the form of substantially discontinuous segments () having an area in the range of 0.25 to 400 mm. The substantially discontinuous segments () provide a highly uniform expansion of the material when it is thermally expanded. The acoustic absorbing members are particularly useful for sealing automotive cavities to provide acoustical abatement and to prevent the entry of fluids into the cavity.
