CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene) is a high-performance additive used as an impact modifier and flexibility enhancer in plastic systems, primarily PVC. Especially in rigid PVC applications, it increases the impact resistance of the product, reducing brittleness even at low temperatures and ensuring a more reliable mechanical structure. Due to its high compatibility with the PVC matrix, it shows homogeneous distribution, supports process stability, and increases the long-term performance of the final product. Compatible with extrusion and injection processes, CPE offers a wide range of use with grades optimized for different application requirements.
