Abstract
A process for producing an expanded or foamed polyolefin panel with a decorative surface wherein a polyolefin or a mixture of a polyolefin with rubber and/or a synthetic resin miscible therewith is blended homogeneously with a crosslinking agent and a blowing agent and shaped into a panel-like matrix below the decomposition temperature of the blowing agent and the activation temperature of the crosslinking agent; a film of a thermoplastic synthetic resin, imprinted in accordance with a pattern with printing ink on one surface side, is applied unilaterally or bilaterally to the matrix, with the imprinted surface side facing the matrix; and then the matrix, with the film applied, is crosslinked and expanded by heating to a temperature above the activation of the crosslinking agent and the decomposition temperature of the blowing agent.
