High chlorinated polyethylene (HCPE) has multiple uses, mainly including the following aspects:
Coatings: High chlorinated polyethylene is widely used in the manufacture of heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings, fireproof coatings, flame retardant coatings, etc. It has good weather resistance, ozone resistance, flame resistance, and chemical resistance, and can replace materials such as epoxy resin, chlorinated rubber, and chlorosulfonated polyethylene. It is widely used in chemical equipment, oilfield pipelines, marine facilities, ships, metallurgical mines, salt industry, fishing grounds, three waste treatment, power equipment, containers, and other industries.
Adhesive: High chlorinated polyethylene can be used to manufacture high-end adhesives, improving adhesion, corrosion resistance, and flame retardancy. It can also be used as a modifier for adhesives, for high-end ink and other products.
Ink: In the field of ink, high chlorinated polyethylene can be used as a modifier for ink used in paper and aluminum foil to improve the performance of the ink.
Other applications: In addition, high chlorinated polyethylene can also be used as a fire retardant for paper and fibers, as well as an adhesive and heat-resistant modifier for rubber series such as chloroprene rubber and nitrile rubber.
Production process and environmental impact: The industrial production of high chlorinated polyethylene mostly adopts the aqueous phase method. The chlorination process uses water as the medium, with low production costs and no pollution to the ecological environment. With the gradual maturity of the water suspension deep chlorination process technology, the development and application of domestically produced high chlorinated polyethylene products have developed rapidly.
Market trend: Due to its excellent properties similar to chlorinated rubber and environmentally friendly production process, high chlorinated polyethylene has become a good substitute for chlorinated rubber in the coating industry in recent years, especially in the field of anti-corrosion coatings.
