Uhhh, no. In fact not all EVA foam is necessarily crosslinked nor is
it PE.<br>
<br>
The polymer reference materials that I frequently use list the common
materials for closed cell foams separately <br>
PE, EVA,PS, PVC, PP, PPO, PU, etc.<br>
<br>
PE is foam made from Polyethylene. EVA is an Ethylene-vinyl acetate
copolymer. Different thermoplastics but both used separately to make
foams and together in blends).<br>
