XPE foam material (Meishuo is the manufacturer of XPE, IXPE foam), is made of low-density polyethylene resin plus crosslinking agent and foaming agent through high-temperature continuous foaming. EPE (physical foamed polyethylene, known as pearl cotton). Tensile strength of XPE foam is higher and the cells are better.
XPE is an ideal material for heat preservation of automobiles and air conditioners. It has developed rapidly in the sports and leisure goods market in recent years, such as surfboards, moisture-proof mats, and yoga mats. It also has certain uses in construction, and it has more applications as flame retardant materials. Recently it has been applied in the automotive and packaging industries.
XPE has non-crosslinked closed cell structure, also known as chemically crosslinked PE, which is an environmentally friendly packaging material. It is made up of countless independent bubbles produced by physical foaming of low-density polyethylene grease. It has many advantages such as water-proof and moisture-proof, shockproof, sound insulation, heat preservation, good plasticity, strong toughness, recycling, environmental protection, and strong impact resistance. It also has good chemical resistance. It is an ideal substitute for traditional packaging materials.
Features of XPE chemical foam
a. Cushioning-semi-rigid foam, it will not lose its original performance after strong impact. It is mostly used in equipment, semiconductor packaging and other fields. At the same time, it can also be used for sports protective equipment and leisure by taking advantage of its easy formability. The production area of supplies.
b. Formability-strong heat resistance, good ductility, uniform density, can realize deep parts such as vacuum forming and thermoforming, so it can be used for interior parts and shoes such as automobile air-conditioning evaporation cabinet, automobile hot-pressed ceiling, etc. Material aspects.
c. Sound absorption-It has the function of sound absorption and noise reduction, suitable for sound absorption and sound insulation materials in the environment such as airplanes, railway vehicles, automobiles, electric motors and other strong noise equipment. The cross-linking of the substance produced by ion irradiation is used to change the original structure of the base material, thereby forming a network-like independent closed-cell bubble structure, making the product surface smooth, excellent in resilience, and high in mechanical strength; heat insulation and water proof, Excellent moisture resistance
