Abstract
A mold unit () defines an elongate cavity () and has an injection inlet port () for a viscous material at one end of the cavity and an injection outlet port () at the other end of the cavity. The mold unit includes a gas vent formed by a gap (G) between two parts of the mold unit. The gap extends continuously or intermittently in the length direction of the the mold unit, while penetrating through the mold unit in the thickness direction such that it provides fluid communication between an interior space and an exterior space of the cavity. The gap is shaped such that, although gasses pass through, the viscous material does not pass due to fluidity resistance of the viscous material resulting from its viscosity. As a result, the gas vent acts to block leakage of the viscous material while permitting degassing of the viscous material.
