  • the bottle 10 can be made for example as follows.
  • the polyethylene foam is first extruded by mixing polyethylene and isobutane to obtain a block of foam with cells containing isobutane. This block of foam is then stored to be degassed so that the ambient air replaces the isobutane in the cells. During degassing, the polyethylene polymerizes to form the closed cells of the foam which are then relatively rigid.
  • the foam block thus obtained is smooth on the surface because of the presence of a skin which has formed on the walls of the extrusion mold.

It can also be maintained in a recess provided in the inner wall of the mold, the dimensions of the recess being slightly lower than those of the foam plate so as to maintain it.
  • the foam is compressed in the mold so that when the bottle comes out of the mold, the foam relaxes and comes extra thick on the bottle.
  • the foam is held in the mold thanks to the recess, it is not necessarily compressed.
  • This mold is then injected with polyethylene to produce a preform comprising a tubular part closed at its lower end and being connected superiorly to the neck defining the opening 21.
  • a hot gas is then injected through the opening 21 inside the opening. the preform, so as to expand the sufficiently hot tubular portion, until it substantially matches the shape of the inner surface of the mold and the face of the foam plate facing the mold interior.
  • the face of the plate facing the interior of the mold melts slightly in contact with the bottle and is welded by cooling on the outer wall of the bottle.
  • the outer surface of the bottle can come to marry the cells 42 of the foam through blowing.
  • the abrasive element 40 is thus perfectly fixed on the body 20 of the bottle.
  • the temperature of the preform and the pressure it undergoes when the gas is injected are chosen so that they allow the foam to weld on the wall of the bottle and that they do not allow the foam to melt in the mold nor to the air trapped in the cells of the foam to explode.
  • the temperature and pressure parameters are very close to those used to produce a conventional polyethylene bottle.
  • the polyethylene preform has, for example, a temperature of between 50 and 100 ° C. and is subjected to a pressure of between 8 and 10 bars.
