Abstract: The effect of Dicumyl peroxide (DCP) content on the crosslink of Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) was studied via torque rheometer. The results showed that the increasing of DCP content can improve the crosslink degree of LDPE. The raise of temperature could shorten the starting time of crosslink of LDPE which began to crosslink at 400s in 135℃ whereas 200s in 145℃. The blowing multiple of LDPE first increased then decreased with the increasing of DCP content when the addition of AC blowing agent was constant. Adding 0.4phr DCP could make LDPE foam reach 10 times expansion when AC content was 1phr. The shape of air pores of LDPE foam was observed by video microscopy. It was found that adding 0.2~0.6phr DCP can get small diameter and homogeneous distribution air pores.
