Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE)

$0.00

Chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) is a versatile elastomer and polymer modifier well suited for both thermoset and thermoplastic applications requiring excellent weathering, oxidation, and heat resistance. Its balanced physical properties allow CPE to perform reliably across a wide range of demanding environments.

CPE is commonly used in the production of wire and cable sheathing, tubing, weatherstripping, conveyor belts, and liquid-proof seals for automotive, industrial, and electrical applications.

Performance Characteristics:

  • Chlorine Content:

    • Higher chlorine grades provide superior oil resistance, chemical resistance, and flame retardancy.

    • Lower chlorine grades offer enhanced low-temperature flexibility and impact performance.

  • Viscosity:

    • Higher viscosity grades deliver improved mechanical strength.

    • Lower viscosity grades offer better processability and flow in extrusion and molding operations.

CPE’s unique combination of flexibility, durability, and chemical resistance makes it a valuable material for a wide range of engineered products and compounding applications.
