Chlorinated polyethylene (PE-C or CPE) is an inexpensive variation of polyethylene, where chlorine is substituted for some of the hydrogen atoms. CPE has a chlorine content from 34 to 44%.
Due to its soft, rubbery texture, CPE is added to polyvinyl chloride to increase its impact and weather resistance. Furthermore, it is used for softening PVC foils, without risking plasticizer migration.
Chlorinated polyethylene can be crosslinked with peroxides to form an elastomer which is used in cable and rubber industries. When chlorinated polyethylene is added to other polyolefins, it reduces the flammability. Chlorinated polyethylene is sometimes used in power cords as an outer jacket.

CPE product adopts polyethylene bags for internal use and polypropylene bags for external use with a net weight of 25 ± 0.2 kg per bag.
CPE resin must be stored in a dry and ventilated warehouse with a stack height not exceeding 10 bags. Solarization and damp environments should be avoided and strict precautions should be taken again stress. CPE is not considered a dangerous cargo.
CPE polymers can range from rigid thermoplastics to flexible elastomers, making them highly versatile. These polymers are used in a variety of end-use applications such as wire and cable jacketing, roofing, automotive and industrial hose and tubing, molding and extrusion, and as a base polymer.
CPE blends well with many types of plastics such as Polyethylene, EVA, and PVC. Such blends can be formed into final products with adequate dimensional stability without the need of vulcanization. The excellent additive/filler acceptability characteristics of CPE can provide a benefit in blends where compound performance and economics are critical.
