Chlorinated polyethylene properties Chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) exhibits excellent physical and mechanical properties including resistance to chemicals, oils, heat, weather, low-temperature performance, compression-set resistance, flame retardancy, high filler acceptance, tensile strength and resistance to abrasion. In addition, CPE polymers can range from crystalline or rigid thermoplastics to a flexible elastomer product, making them highly versatile. Chlorinated [...]

Chlorinated polyethylene is classified into chlorinated polyethylene elastormers(CM) and chlorinated polyethylene resin(CPE), in terms of its physical proprieties and applications. Chlorinated Polyethylene Elastomers (CM) is produced from HDPE that is randomly chlorinated in aqueous slurry. Chlorinated polyethylene is differentiated by chlorine content, molecular weight and crystallinity. Chlorine contents generally range from 25 to 42%. Advantages [...]
