Abstract
Polyolefin foam having small, uniform cell size is prepared (1) by mixing a polyolefin resin with (a) a volatile organic blowing agent and (b) from about 0.1 to about 5 weight percent, based upon the polyolefin resin weight, of a cell control agent (e.g., such as amorphous silica having a pH of from 3.5 to 4.5), said cell control agent being in the form of nonporous microspheres having an average particle size of from about 5 to about 100 m.mu. and (2) by thereafter extrusion-expanding the resultant mixture.
