Polyethylene Foam protects parts against shock, corrosion.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Thu, 31 May 2007 07:33:37 -0500

In addition to cushioning metal products against shock, Rust-Shield(TM) contains Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) compound that vaporizes and coats molecules on surface of metal to prevent corrosion. Product is suited for storing or shipping of metal parts. When parts are unwrapped, protective molecular layer immediately begins to dissipate. This leaves metal parts clean, corrosion-free, and ready to use.

Raprex(TM) pre-processed resins are formulated to provide improved physical properties without chemical cross linking agents. Radiation processing of base PE resin results in inhomogeneous cross link distribution in polymer. This results in parts that are higher in mechanical properties than unmodified versions. Available in extrusion, injection molding, and film grades, products exhibit tear strength from 7.0-13.4 g/micron and tensile strength from 24.2-50.8.
