Abstract
A process for preparing structural, heat-insulating shaped bodies which does not necessarily require the use of a foamed heat-insulating material obtained by the use of blowing agents belonging to the class of chlorofluorocarbons. The process includes inserting a heat-insulating pre-molded core inside a tubular element made from an extruded thermoplastic polymer; placing the extruded tubular element containing the pre-molded core into a blow-molding mold; and molding the tubular element into a shell by blow-molding. By subsequent mold closure, the shell adheres to the pre-molded core. An alternative process is disclosed for adhering the tubular element and pre-formed core by closing the mold and drawing a vacuum within the tubular element.
