EVA is a co-polymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate with very fine closed cells, impervious to air and liquids.
Vinyl acetate gives EVA more resistance and “rubbery feel” compared to polyethylene. It is available in various colours and densities, it shows great elasticity, flexibility, mechanical resistance and dielectric properties.
EVA is a good insulator and it withstands well to low temperatures and UV radiation.
