EVA Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer

EVA Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer

EVA Ethylene Vinyl Acetate copolymer is a versatile material known for its flexibility, durability, and excellent impact resistance. It combines the properties of both ethylene and vinyl acetate, offering a balance of strength, elasticity, and toughness.

EVA is resistant to UV radiation, stress cracking, and moisture, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including packaging, automotive, medical devices, and footwear. It is also commonly used in the production of flexible tubing, as it maintains its shape and performance under various environmental conditions.

What is Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer


Ethyl-vinyl acetate thermoplastic copolymer (EVA) is a fusion of ethylene and vinyl acetate. Its diverse benefits include excellent softness, elasticity, processability, and transparency make EVA a material between plastic and rubber. 


Ethyl vinyl acetate copolymer has diverse thermal properties, making it versatile uses particularly suitable for industries requiring high flexibility, transparency, and environmental safety, including medical devices, packaging, and photovoltaic cables.Our article mainly introduces its thermoplasticity, adjustable low melting point, thermal adhesion and other thermal properties.



EVA Material Properties Analysis: From Raw Materials to Characteristic Analysis


Ethylene in EVA provides hardness, while vinyl acetate contributes flexibility and elasticity. When the ethylene content is higher than the vinyl acetate content, the EVA copolymer exhibits rigidity and wear resistance. Conversely, with higher vinyl acetate content, the copolymer becomes softer, more transparent, and has higher tackiness. The variation in their ratios allows for adjustable melting points and a range of material strengths. 


EVA copolymers can be compounded with foaming agents to create new foam materials tube. Compared to PE foam tubing, EVA foam tubing offers greater flexibility and elasticity but lacks the firmness and rigidity.

Characteristic of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer


In addition to thermal properties,eva ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer also has some other material properties that we will explore together.


◆ Flexibility

EVA offers excellent flexibility, even in low temperatures, making it ideal for applications requiring soft, bendable materials.


◆ Transparency

It is often transparent or translucent, allowing for easy visual inspection of contents or flow.


◆ Good Adhesion

Provides strong adhesion to other materials like metals, plastics, and rubbers.


◆ Chemical Resistance

Resistant to mild acids, oils, and solvents, though it is less resistant to strong chemicals compared to other materials.


◆ Low Temperature Resistance

Performs well in low-temperature environments without becoming brittle.


◆ Shock Absorption

Offers good cushioning properties, making it suitable for protective packaging and impact-resistant applications.


◆ Non-Toxic and Safe

Generally copolymer considered non-toxic, making it safe for use in food, medical, and consumer products.
