Highest density yet for extruded, XLLDPE foams.Last year Sekisui Voltek, Lawrence, Mass., began producing limited quantities of what is believed to be the highest-density crosslinked polyolefin polyolefin synthetic material used for surgical sutures, e.g. in polyethylene and polypropylene sutures. foam in the world. The company is producing fine-celled XL LDPE LDPE abbr. low-density polyethylene and EVA Eva to marry winner of singing contest. [Ger. Opera: Wagner, Meistersinger, Westerman, 225–228] See : Prize 1. Eva - A toy ALGOL-like language used in "Formal Specification of Programming Languages: A Panoramic Primer", F.G. foams of 20 pcf, only one-third that of solid polymer. Three years ago, it reached as high as 18 pcf in producing foams for gaskets, tapes, and other specialty products requiring high strength and compressibility com·press·i·ble adj. That can be compressed: compressible packing materials; a compressible box. com·press . XLLDPE is typically foamed to densities of 2 to 6 pcf. Volara HD (high-density) foams are 0.01 to 0.08 in. thick and aimed at industrial mountings, gaskets, and medical applications like wound care. Rolls are 55 to 65 in. wide and over 6000 ft long.
