LDPE

LDPE is obtained from ethylene in monomer form. LDPE is the type of PE that was accidentally invented by Imperial Chemical Industries in 1930. Low density polyethylene is obtained by exposing ethylene to high pressure and temperature. As a result of these processes, PE emerges as low density polyethylene. LDPE is a thermoplastic raw material.

LDPE Properties

Easy to shape with temperature and pressure.
High mechanical strength
High melting temperature
High puncture and impact resistance
High water vapor barrier properties compared to PE films
Optional one-sided or double-sided heat seal feature
Suitable for lamination and printing processes
Superior process performance in automated packaging machines
High resistance to cracking, acids, organic solvents and electrolytes.
High gloss
