PE

Ethylene is a colorless gas molecule in the monomer (the most stable pure substance) state. It is obtained by the breakdown of aliphatic hydrocarbons, which are abundant in petroleum. Ethylene molecules undergo condensation or chain reactions to form polyethylenes. Polyethylenes are referred to in the literature as a type of thermoplastics. It is called “PE” for short in the plastic industryt

Polyethylene Properties

Polyethylene production processes are usually either high or low pressure. Polyelitenes are subjected to high pressure to produce low density polyethylene (LDPE). Low pressure is used to produce high density polyethylene (HDPE).

Polyethylene (PE) is a light raw material. The reasons why it is frequently used in the industrial field are that it is low cost, easy to use and flexible. Apart from these features, there are many more reasons why PE is preferred. These are

Resistance to chemical substances
Robustness and durability
Gas and liquid impermeability

Polyethylene and PolyPropylene Differencest

Polyethylene (PE) is a stronger material than polypropylene (PP)
Polypropylene is more resistant to chemicals and organic solvents.
Polyethylene has the ability to stretch. Polypropylene is a hard material that does not stretch
Compared to polyethylene, polypropylene is more rigid.

PE, i.e. polyethylene, provides economical and robust packaging of products. For this reason, it is frequently used in the packaging of textiles and foods with long shelf life. At Kemahlıoğlu Plastik, Petkim raw materials are used in PE bags in order to obtain standard and quality products. Otherwise, a different raw material specific to that production is used in line with the demand. For more than 25 years, Kemahlıoğlu Plastik has been a contracted customer of Petkim Petrochemical Holding, and thanks to the bilateral relationship it has established with Petkim, it directly reflects the advantage it gains in raw material procurement to its customers.
