Producing extrusion blow molded plastics products is a less expensive process than injection blow molding and can provide a wide variety of barriers and features such as handles, but the dimensional accuracy is not as well controlled. Some materials such as PET and standard PP homopolymer are difficult to impossible to extrusion blow mold on a commercial basis due to their low melt viscosities. However, polypropylene and polyester copolymers are available which can be extrusion blow molded acceptably. The parison (hot hollow plastic tube) is extruded through an annular die. The thickness of the parison is controlled in the die by varying the wall thickness of the parison, whilst leaving the outside diameter the same. This is accomplished by having a conical inner sleeve, which can be moved up and down in the die, resulting in a controlled variation in wall thickness of the parison.
