Abstract
A process for the manufacture of a molded article from a powder form of a polyolefin of molecular weight of at least one million which comprises introducing a homopolymer of ethylene or a copolymer of ethylene with an .alpha.-olefin of 3 to 10 carbon atoms having a molecular weight of at least one million into a mold loosely closed with a plug, heating the same in said mold in an inert atmosphere at a temperature of 150.degree. to 250.degree. C, whereby said polyolefin is transformed into a rubbery elastic state, thereafter compressing said polyolefin in said mold for at least two minutes at a pressure of 2.5 to 25 N/mm.sup.2 and thereafter compressing said polyolefin for at least one minute at a pressure of 40 to 100 N/mm.sup.2.
