Nylon is a polymer made from 1,6 hexanediamine. Polyethylene is a polymer made from ethylene.

These 3 different types of netting are all man made fibres. Nylon and polypropylene (p/p) give softer, more flexible feel whereas polyethylene (p/e) is quite a wiry type of material. Nylon and p/p are used in applications where a curtain or drape effect is needed to take the speed and impact of a hard ball, e.g. cricket and Golf.

Is polyolefin and polyamide the same?

No, polyolefin and polyamide are not the same. Polyolefin is a type of polymer made from olefin monomers, such as polyethylene and polypropylene, while polyamide is a type of polymer made from amide monomers, such as nylon. They have different chemical compositions and properties.


What does fpo mean?

FPO stands for Flexible Polyolefin. An olefin is a chemical compound with at least one carbon atom to carbon atom double bond. An example is the simple olefin ethylene (C2H4). These molecules join together to form a polyolefin, for example poly-ethylene, hence a polyolefin. You can have thermoplastic polyolefins (TPOs) or polyolefin elastomers, eg (EPDM rubber).

How is heat shrink sleeve manufactured?

A heat-shrinkable sleeve starts out with a thick extruded polyolefin sheet (polyethylene or Polypropylene) that is formulated to be cross-linkable. After extruding the thick sheet, it is taken to the "beam" where it is passed under a unit that subjects the sheet to electron irradiation. The irradiation process cross-links the polyolefin. This improves the molecular structure such that the polyolefin will work as part of a heat-shrinkable sleeve and provide the required level of mechanical protection while in-service. It makes the polyolefin perform more like a tough, heat-resistant, elastic material, than like a plastic material.After cross-linking, the sheet is stretched by feeding it into a machine that heats it up, stretches it and cools it down. Because the sheet has been cross-linked, after stretching, it will want to recover to its original length when re-heated
