A method for molding a seamless rebonded foam article with an internal cavity is provided. The method may include moving a middle mold to a middle mold form position within the mold cavity to press into a first portion of rebond foam particles, and moving a top mold to a top mold form position within the mold cavity to press into the second portion of rebond foam particles. The method may further include injecting steam into the mold cavity at a middle mold fluid port interface of the middle mold such that the steam passes into the mold cavity to interact with the first and second portions of rebond foam particles via at least one middle mold flow hole in the middle mold, and evacuating the steam via a vacuum source coupled to the top mold and the bottom mold.

A rigid polymer porous material sheet is produced by feeding a slurry of polymer mixture comprising ultrafine polyvinylchloride particle, non-phthalate plasticizer, foaming agent and thermal stabilizer, polymer chips, fillers and fire retardant chemicals into a heated mold and pressing the mixture with high applied pressure. The temperature of the mold is below 190 C. to soften the polymer mixture and decompose the foaming agent forming the closed cell polyvinylchloride foam with 10 to 40% density with closed air cells. The thermal resistance of the rigid polymer porous sheet and sound attenuation properties are significantly improved. The rigid polymer porous sheet can be bent at sharp angles without crack formation facilitating its use as wall boards. The sheets produced may be embossed or molded to produce decoration boards, advertising boards, cabinet doors and furniture with decorative features. They can also be used in aeronautical applications as acoustic thermal insulation systems.
