New opportunities based on PE-Xa material properties

OBS! ANSÖKNINGSTIDEN FÖR DETTA EXJOBB HAR LÖPT UT.
Background
PE-Xa pipe is manufactured out of high-density polyethylene using the Engel process. Cross-linking is defined as a process that changes the chemical structure in such a way that the polymer chains connect to each other to create a three-dimensional network through chemical bonds.

This new structure means that it is impossible to melt or dissolve the polymer without first destroying its structure. The PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) pipe material has many positive properties, e.g.:
• High Temperature and Pressure Resistance
• Low Coefficient of Friction
• Pure and Non Toxic
• High Elasticity and Impact Strength
• Good Electrical Insulator
• High Abrasion Resistance
• Thermal Memory

Objectives
Based on the PE-Xa material properties, perform a study aimed at identifying new potential applications/markets within other industrial markets than building solutions and current industrial solutions.
