Germany launches new technology for plastic cross-linking

Germany uses ionizing radiation (γ, β rays) to cross-link plastics. Cross-linked modified molded parts have outstanding resistance to charge, creep resistance, non-sensitivity to stress cracks, and thermal stability. Sex and flame retardancy.
The advantages of this method mainly lie in that it can be used as a food packaging material because of no peroxide, no thermal effect is required in the cross-linking reaction, and it is conveniently injected and extruded. The plastic types applicable to this method include LDPE, LLDPE, MDPE, HDPE, UHMWPE, E-VA, PUR, PA, PVC, and PVDF.
