Abstract: The byproducts of crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) for high-voltage cables reduce the purity of the insulation, thereby limiting its DC electrical performance. The byproduct-free click ...

However, most glues can’t be used with polyethylene or polypropylene plastics, so double-check the glue’s package to ensure it’ll work with your material. Superglue, also known as a ...

Since the kind of plastic has a bearing on which glue would be the right adhesive, it is vital to understand the different types of the material. High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is the main ...

However, not all materials are suitable for use with Gorilla Glue, and understanding these limitations is crucial to avoid potential mishaps. The one material you'll want to avoid is plastic made from ...

It’s incredibly difficult to shape and mold — until now. Scientists at the University of Oxford have developed new ways to process ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a super-strong ...

Conventional glue or adhesives involve epoxy and related materials ... The University of California at Berkeley has developed a chemical process that converts polyethylene plastic into a valuable ...
