    Hi Kvish

    If you are talking about the sole of a shoe, look at cellular core PVC manufacturing practices. Here, somehow, they infuse air into PVC and make it like 30% lighter than regular schedule 40 PVC.

    Good luck!

    Hi mark,
    Thank you for answering my question and it'l also be very important to my work.Can't do it with out any replacement?just only changing the amount of fillers?I heard that this can be solve by just looking the specific gravity.But I don't know the way of doing it.(the important thing is, this shoe soles can only be manufactured by using injection molding.)

    And also I want know further about cellular core PVC.Please send me a link.
