Abstract
The present invention concerns a foamed, silane-cross-linked polyolefin foam and a procedure for producing the same. The polyolefin foam contains 60-99.9% polyolefin, 0.1-10% chemically bound hydrolyzed silane, 0-5% condensing catalyst, 0.1-5% water and 0-20% water carrier substance. The polyolefin foam is produced by extruding a mixture which contans polyethylene, silane hydrolyzable with water, a condensing catalyst and a foaming agent. For the polyolefin to be extruded is used polyethylene containing 0.1-5% water as foaming agent and 0-20% water carrier substance.
