Polyethylene is a low-cost commodity plastic that, due to its thermoplastic nature, may be reused. Polyethylene cross-linking improves its thermal resistance, and the finished product is changed from thermoplastic to thermosetting plastic. Plumbing was the largest application segment in the global cross linked polyethylene market in 2016 and is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period. Conventionally used plumbing materials such as copper and PVC do not perform well in high temperatures and when highly chlorinated water is transported through them over prolonged periods.
