Market Analysis and Size
Cross linking polymers was discovered when the discoverers were searching a way to stabilize the rubber, that they will stabilize the rubber in the mid of 1800's. After years of research, Charles Goodyear discovered vulcanized rubber. The main aim was to stabilize natural rubber from distorting in heat. Goodyear was accidentally melted sulfur and rubber by using hot stove this combination of these two component allowed the rubber to resist higher heats. The heated rubber which has heated with sulfur changed the chains of polymer within the rubber. The changed polymer chains were the cross linked and it forms as a stronger and durable material. Since the discovery of vulcanization, the advancements in cross linking have changed immensely. Cross linking can be gained with numerous chemical additives which has referred to a chemical cross linking or with irradiation.

Market Definition
Shrink films with cross-links are flexible packaging materials which has been utilized for multiple purposes. Polypropylene or Polyethylene (LDPE or HDPE) is used to make cross-linked shrink films. These cross-linked shrink films have some significant properties, such as toughness, outstanding strength, puncture resistance, and tear resistance. Moreover, these films are user-friendly and eco-friendly. Furthermore, these films have transparency and clarity during handling. They are used in various equipment, including sealers, shrink wrappers, and other wrapping machines. Due to their strength and hardness, these films are used for irregular items or sharp edge to protect them, and provide product reliability to packaging.
Cross-linked Shrink Film Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:
Drivers
- Rise in demand due to unique properties
The cross-linked shrink films have exceptional strength, resistance capacity, toughness, high puncture and tear resistance capacity properties which increase the demand of this film in the targeted market. Continuous R&D to improve aesthetic aspects, physical qualities and processing durability is anticipated to increase product acceptance in application industries.
- Increased puncture resistance will act as a driver for market growth
One of the main aids of a cross linked shrink film is increased puncture resistance, enabling users to use thinner film while still gaining the same strength. A thinner film offers a variety of benefits but the main benefit being cost. Thinner shrink film also offers faster sealing, clarity, and shrinking.
Opportunities
- Rise in product innovations
The several product innovations, such as the development of novel variants with high-gloss finish, improved barrier and airtight sealing properties, and ease of printing, are acting as other factors that enhance the market's growth in upcoming years.
