IXPE Foam is also called Irradiated Cross-linked Polyethylene Foam,is a high-performance material known for its fine and uniform cell structure. It delivers outstanding heat resistance, shock absorption, and noise-dampening qualities. Lightweight yet durable, this foam is impervious to water and resistant to chemicals, making it a versatile choice for automotive, construction, packaging, and athletic gear applications.
The key difference between XPE and IXPE foam is in the cross-linking process during manufacturing. XPE foam is cross-linked with the addition of a cross-linking agent, whereas IXPE foam is cross-linked by an electron accelerator.
