Waterproof IXPP Packaging Foam Closed Cell PP Foam Sheet 1-6mm For Electronics

Waterproof IXPP Packaging Foam for Electronics Protection

EKKOFLEX's IXPP (Irradiation Cross-Linked Polypropylene) foam is a waterproof closed cell packaging foam engineered for the protection of electronics and precision instruments. Manufactured from polypropylene through melt mixing and extrusion molding, followed by green ion radiation cross-linking and continuous high-temperature foaming, the material forms an independent closed-cell structure with a closed-cell rate of over 98%.

This unique structure gives IXPP foam outstanding waterproofness and moisture resistance while delivering excellent shock absorption, cushioning, and rebound performance. With low odor and minimal VOC emissions, it is safe for direct contact with sensitive electronic components, making it the ideal protective packaging material for consumer electronics, industrial equipment, and precision instruments in domestic and export logistics.

Key Features

1. Waterproof & Moisture Barrier - Closed-cell rate over 98% with water absorption as low as ≤2%, keeping electronics dry during transit, warehousing, and outdoor storage.
2. Superior Shock Absorption - Excellent cushioning, resilience, and impact resistance protect delicate electronic components from drops, vibration, and impact during handling and shipping.
3. Lightweight & High Strength - Density as low as 33.3 kg/m³ with high strength-to-weight ratio reduces shipping weight and packaging costs.
4. Low Odor & Low VOC - Environmentally friendly and harmless with minimal VOC emissions, safe for direct contact with electronic components and consumer products.
5. Excellent Chemical Resistance - Better chemical resistance than other foam materials, protecting electronics from corrosion and contamination.
6. Thermal Insulation - Low thermal conductivity (<0.036 W/m·K) provides a protective buffer against temperature fluctuations during transport.
7. Superior Processing Performance - Can be die-cut, compounded, thermoformed, and vacuum-formed into custom inserts, trays, corner protectors, and cushioning pads.
