EPE plastic is called Expandable Polystyrene, that is, polyethylene foam plastic, commonly known as pearl cotton. The following is a detailed introduction to EPE:
　　1、 Characteristics
　　Low density: EPE plastic has a low density, making it widely used in packaging and filling fields.
　　Good flexibility: This material has good flexibility, is not easy to break, and can adapt well to packaging needs of various shapes and sizes.
　　High response rate: EPE plastic can quickly recover its original shape and properties after being squeezed by external forces.
　　Superior shock resistance: Its shock resistance is superior to polystyrene plastic, effectively protecting packaging from vibration and impact damage.
　　Low surface water absorption rate: EPE plastic has a low surface water absorption rate, which can keep the packaging dry and clean.
　　Good impermeability performance: This material can effectively prevent the penetration of liquids and gases, ensuring the safety of packaging materials.
　　Chemical corrosion resistance: EPE plastic is resistant to acid, alkali, salt, oil and other organic solvents, and has good chemical stability.
　　Excellent aging resistance: does not flow at high temperatures, does not crack at low temperatures, and can maintain stable performance for a long time.
　　2、 Application Fields
　　EPE plastic is widely used in multiple fields due to its unique properties:
　　Packaging field: used for packaging high-end furniture, household appliances, instruments and meters, craft gifts, wooden products, glass and ceramics, building waterproofing, carpet interlayers, sound insulation, travel bags, precision spare parts, various pipeline insulation and other fields.
　　Logistics transportation: As a shockproof, pressure resistant, and moisture-proof packaging material, it protects the safety of goods during transportation.
　　In the field of architecture: used for building waterproofing, sound insulation, thermal insulation, and other aspects.
　　Daily life: such as making insulation bags, fresh-keeping bags, protective boxes, etc., to provide convenience for people's lives.
　　3、 Environmental friendliness
　　EPE plastic is a new type of environmentally friendly material that can be recycled. During the manufacturing process, allowing a certain amount of EPE recycled materials to be proportioned can help reduce manufacturing costs and minimize environmental impact.
　　4、 Production process
　　EPE plastic produces a non crosslinked closed cell structure through a physical foaming process using low-density polyethylene resin. This production process gives EPE plastic unique properties and application value.
　　In summary, EPE plastic has become an indispensable material in modern industry and life due to its unique properties, wide range of applications, and environmental friendliness.
