Polymers - LLDPE
Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) is a linear polymer with a considerable number of short branches, made by copolymerization of ethylene with short-chain alpha-olefins (i.e., for instance, 1-butene, 1-hexene and 1-octene).
With a density range of 0.9150 - 0.925 g/cm3, LLDPE replaces its predecessor Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) in many applications. LLDPE is a blended form of LDPE, where the film has much more tensile strength, flexibility, superior impact and puncture resistance.
CHARACTERISTICS
- Good resistance to alcohol, alkalis and acids
- High tensile strength and higher impact
- Excellent puncture resistance
- Flexible and elongates under stress
- Resistant to chemicals
- Low water absorption
- Excellent insulating properties
- Translucent and natural milky colour
