In this study, crosslinked polyethylene (PE) foam sheets were prepared through gamma-ray irradiation. PE foam sheets were prepared through a foaming process using sodium bicarbonate as a blowing and foaming agent. The prepared PE foam sheets were then crosslinked through gamma-ray irradiation. The crosslinking degree was increased to 86.0% with an increase in the absorption dose. The tensile strength of the crosslinked PE foam sheets was increased with an increase in the absorption dose. However, the elongation-at-break of the crosslinked PE foam sheets was decreased. The thermal decomposition temperature of the crosslinked PE foam sheets was increased to
