​What Are The Properties Of Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) ?

Chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) is a kind of full macromolecule material with white powder appearance. It is non-toxic and tasteless. It has excellent weather resistance, ozone resistance, chemical resistance and aging resistance. It has outstanding oil resistance, flame retardancy and coloring function. If you want to have a simple knowledge of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), let`s understand the basic uses of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE).

Chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) resin is a new synthetic material with a series of excellent functions. It is an excellent impact modifier for PVC plastics and an excellent synthetic rubber with comprehensive functions. It has a wide range of applications. CPE has been widely used in cables, wires, hoses, rubber and plastic products, sealing materials, flame retardant conveyor belts, waterproof rolls, films and various profiles.

CPE can also be blended with polypropylene, high and low pressure polyethylene and ABS to improve the flame retardant function, aging resistance and printing function of these plastics. CPE can be regarded as a random copolymer of ethylene, polyethylene and 1.2-dichloroethylene. It has full molecular chains and random distribution of polar chlorine atoms. Because of its excellent physical and chemical functions, CPE is widely used in machinery, power, chemical industry, building materials and mining industry. CPE is superior to most rubber in heat resistance, ozone resistance, weathering resistance, aging resistance, oil resistance, aging resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, salt resistance, non-toxic, non-flammable and non-explosive hazard.

The main applications are: wire and cable, hydraulic hose, automotive hose, tape, plywood, PVC product modification (PVC pipes, sheets, boards, profiles), magnetic material, ABS modification and so on...
