Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) High-Performance Impact Modifier & Elastomer

Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) – High-Performance Impact Modifier & Elastomer

Product Description:
Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) is a thermoplastic elastomer produced by the chlorination of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Known for its excellent flexibility, impact resistance, chemical stability, and weatherability, CPE is widely used as an impact modifier for PVC products and as a standalone material in rubber applications.

CPE is available in multiple grades tailored for various applications such as cables, hoses, roofing membranes, magnetic materials, and injection-molded or extruded plastic goods.

Key Features:

• Appearance: White powder

• Chlorine Content: 25%–42% (depending on grade)

• Heat Resistance: Excellent thermal stability

• Tensile Strength: High strength and elongation at break

• Weatherability: Outstanding UV, ozone, and aging resistance

• Compatibility: Highly compatible with PVC and other polymer systems

Applications:

🔹 Plastic Industry:

• Used as an impact modifier for PVC profiles, pipes, window frames, and siding

• Enhances low-temperature flexibility and durability

🔹 Rubber Industry:
