Chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) is a multifunctional polymer material with a wide range of applications. The following are some of the main uses of chlorinated polyethylene:
Wire and cable: Chlorinated polyethylene can be used as insulation material for wire and cable, especially for wires specified in coal mine cables, UL and VDE standards.
Rubber hoses and tapes: It can be used to manufacture hydraulic hoses, automotive hoses, tapes, and rubber plates.
PVC profile pipe modification: Chlorinated polyethylene is an excellent impact modifier for PVC plastics, which can improve the impact resistance and low-temperature performance of PVC products.
Magnetic materials and ABS modification: CPE is also used in the production of magnetic materials and the modification of ABS resin.
Sealed products and industrial products: Due to its heat resistance, weather resistance, and flame resistance, chlorinated polyethylene is commonly used to manufacture sealed products as well as industrial products such as rubber hoses, tapes, and rollers that require temperature resistance, acid resistance, and flame resistance.
Blended use: Chlorinated polyethylene can be blended with polypropylene, high and low pressure polyethylene, ABS, etc. to improve the flame retardancy, aging resistance, and printing performance of these plastics.
Other applications: CPE can also be used to produce PVC products such as door and window profiles, plastic pipe fittings, boards, as well as mining cables, waterproof boards, flame-retardant conveyor belts, etc.
In summary, chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) has a wide range of applications in various fields due to its unique physical and chemical properties.
