Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) Overview
Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) is a highly flexible and durable thermoplastic polymer. Known for its superior tensile strength and puncture resistance compared to LDPE, LLDPE is widely used in various applications such as packaging films, stretch wraps, and industrial liners. It offers excellent impact resistance and is commonly used in the agricultural, construction, and consumer goods industries. LLDPE’s enhanced mechanical properties and versatility make it a preferred choice for many demanding applications.
Key Features of LLDPE:
- High tensile strength and puncture resistance
- Excellent flexibility and impact resistance
- Cost-effective and recyclable
