Zusammenfassung:	A process is provided for the production of a cellular thermoplastic body, wherein solid thermoplastic material is melted under pressure in an extruder, a gaseous blowing agent is injected into the molten thermoplastic material under pressure and said molten thermoplastic material and gaseous blowing agent is passed to a zone of reduced pressure to effect the cellular expansion of said thermoplastic material by said gaseous blowing agent, and wherein said gaseous blowing agent is metered at sonic velocity at a point upstream of the injection of said gaseous blowing agent into said molten thermoplastic material.
