## Abstract Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the interaction between incident copper ions, SF~6~ molecules and a polyethylene surface. Average particle velocities from 15 to 21 km · s^−1^ are tested in steps of 2 km · s^−1^. The damage to the polyethylene crystal is reviewed in term
