A difficulty is that the polymer melt inside the foam samples cannot be quickly cooled after the formation of foam structure, resulting in collapse and merging of the cell structure, which may lead to form the gradient cellular structure between inside and outer layers. This problem severely restricts the development of polymer foaming technology and the application of foam products. In this work, wc use PP as an example to demonstrate a novel foaming method with water as an in situ cooling medium for the first time. PP/hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PP/PEG) blends are prepared by melt mixing, and then the blends are subjected to moulding physical foaming using C02 as a foaming agent and water as an assistant foaming agent. The temperatures in the surface and core of the foamed samples are measured by the infrared imager. The results show that the addition of PEG makes PP has an ability to absorb water in the saturation stage. Owing to
