Experimental and numerical analysis of bubble nucleation in foaming polymer

This paper investigates the bubble nucleation of polymer (LDPE) foams using nucleation theory and establishes a mathematical model based on in-situ observations and measurements. The effects of different foaming agent contents and shot sizes on bubble nucleation were studied in an injection foaming...
