Radiation-crosslinked polyolefin: high-quality heat-shrink tubing
Polyolefins are an important group of polymers produced by the polymerization of unsaturated hydrocarbons. The most commonly used polyolefins include polyethylene (PE) and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Polyethylene itself comes in different types, including linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). While non-crosslinked polyethylene provides good dielectric, mechanical,[…]
