Liner Bags HDPE / LDPE

Liner Bags HDPE / LDPE

LDPE: Here, the long, chain-like polyethylene molecules have numerous branches and side chains.

This branching creates a less dense, more flexible structure.

HDPE: In contrast, HDPE boasts a linear structure with minimal branching.

This results in a denser, more rigid material


Features

LDPE is, essentially, softer and more flexible than HDPE.

It features a lower melting point of 239 °F and is more transparent

than its high-density counterpart. For that reason,

it's more prone to cracking when under stress.

Uses

HDPE is widely used in plastic packaging, bottles,

and household and industrial chemical containers,

LDPE is a go-to choice when heat sealing is necessary.
