Polyethylene is classified into several
different categories based mostly on its
weight and branching
These both determine its properties.
POLYETHYLENE
UHMWPE (ultra high molecular weight PE)
HDPE (high density PE)
HDXLPE (high density cross-linked PE)
PEX (cross-linked PE)
MDPE (medium density PE)
LDPE (low density PE)
LLDPE (linear low density PE)
VLDPE (very low density PE)
POLYETHYLENE
Linear
Very packed
Tough material
bulletproof vests
orthopedic implants (artificial hips, knees)
ice-less skating rinks
USES:
wash bottles
Saran wrap
most common = dry-cleaning bags
