How to turn ordinary plastic into a highly durable HIGH TECH
Plastics are light – and have immense potential, particularly in lightweight construction, due to the combination of low weight, good performance properties and excellent shapeability. Through the process known as radiation crosslinking, which changes the physical properties of the material, this potential is significantly extended. The application possibilities are huge for these plastics refined by means of beta and gamma rays, especially in view of new mobility concepts.

Improved flame retardancy through radiation crosslinking of bioplastics
22.1.2025 Treatment with high-energy electron beams improves the mechanical, thermal and chemical properties of plastics. Studies show that bio-based plastics such as biopolyamides can also be radiation crosslinked. In a joint project, the Fraunhofer...
