How Does The Electron Beam Crosslinking Process... -

The tight network makes it much harder for solvents, oils, or corrosive fluids to penetrate and degrade the polymer.

Because the bonds are covalent (the strongest type of chemical bond), the polymer can no longer melt or flow. If heated beyond its original melting point, it becomes elastic rather than liquid. 4. Key Performance Benefits

These free radicals are unstable and "seek" stability. They migrate along the polymer chains or jump between adjacent chains.

The process begins in an electron accelerator. A tungsten filament is heated to emit electrons, which are then accelerated through a vacuum tube using high voltage (ranging from 150 keV to 10 MeV). These electrons are focused into a concentrated beam and "scanned" back and forth using electromagnets to ensure even coverage across the target material. 2. The Molecular Mechanism
