Abstract
A thermoformable, multilayer, co-extruded sheet comprising at least two separate foam polypropylene layers obtained by chemical foaming of two polyproplene resins having different flexural modulus, a “high modulus” polypropylene and a “low modulus” polypropylene. The presence of two different foam layers of polypropylene of different modulus allows obtaining a thermoformable sheet with the desired balance between thermoformability and stiffness.
