Large EVOH Compression Set
Problem Phenomenon
EVOH product compression set >30%, failing the 15% requirement
Cause Analysis
EVOH elastic recovery insufficient; crosslinking degree too low, plastic deformation unrecoverable; density too low, cell walls thin, recovery poor
Solution
1) Increase crosslinking degree to 60-70% to reduce plastic deformation; 2) Select high elastic recovery EVOH grade; 3) Add reinforcing filler
Key Takeaway
Large compression set is caused by insufficient crosslinking; increasing crosslinking degree is key
