Product type
Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is a thermoplastic made from the polymerization of ethylene. It is characterized by its low-density molecular structure, which provides flexibility, transparency, and resistance to chemicals and moisture. LDPE is commonly used in various applications due to its lightweight nature and ease of processing.
| Density | 0.910 to 0.925 g/cm³ |
| Melt Flow Index | 0.2 to 50 g/10 min |
| Tensile Strength | 8 to 25 MPa |
| Elongation at Break | 200% to 800% |
| Temperature Resistance | -60°C to 80°C |
When selecting LDPE, consider the specific application requirements such as thickness, clarity, and flexibility. Buyers should specify the desired density, melt flow index, and any necessary certifications for food contact or environmental compliance. Quantities can vary widely based on project needs, so providing estimated usage will help suppliers offer the best options.
