What is Cross-Linked Polyethylene?
Cross-linked polyethylene, also known as XLPE foam, is a highly durable and versatile material that is used in a range of applications. It is a type of closed-cell foam that is created by chemically cross-linking the polymer structure of the material. This process results in a foam that is stronger and more resistant to wear and tear than other types of foam.
XLPE foam offers several key advantages over other types of foam. It is lightweight, flexible, and easy to handle, making it an ideal choice for applications where weight and ease of use are important factors. It is also highly resistant to chemicals, oils, and solvents, making it a popular choice for use in harsh environments.
XLPE foam is a popular material for packaging applications due to its excellent cushioning, insulation, and durability properties. It is commonly used for packaging electronic and electrical equipment, automotive parts, medical equipment, aerospace and defense equipment, and sports equipment.
