Chlorinated Polyethylene

Random chloride obtained by partially replacing hydrogen atoms in polyethylene with chlorine. Chlorination is carried out under the initiation of light or peroxide, and is mainly produced by aqueous suspension method in industry. Due to the difference in the molecular weight and distribution of the raw material polyethylene, the degree of branching, the degree of chlorination after chlorination, the distribution of chlorine atoms and the residual crystallinity, chlorinated polyethylene can be obtained from rubber-like to hard plastic-like. The main purpose is to be used as a modifier of polyvinyl chloride to improve the impact resistance of polyvinyl chloride. Chlorinated polyethylene itself can also be used as electrical insulation material and ground material.
