Abstract
A foamed polymer composition includes a matrix polymer component, and from 0.01 wt % to 2 wt %, based on the weight of the polymer composition, of a nanostructured fluoropolymer, a nanostructured fluoropolymer encapsulated by an encapsulating polymer, or a combination thereof. The matrix polymer component includes polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyetherimide (PEI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycarbonate (PC), poly(p-phenylene oxide) (PPO), polystyrene (PS), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polypropylene (PP), polyamide (PA), polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polybutylene naphthalate (PBN), copolymers thereof, or a combination thereof. Methods for forming foamed polymer compositions, including core-back molding methods and extrusion foaming methods, are also described.
