Abstract: Cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) is a high-performance thermoset with improved thermomechanical properties compared to its parent linear polymer, polyethylene (PE). The covalent bonds linking PEX, however, prevent efficient recycling or reprocessing, which represents a critical liability… read more here.
