Main Types of PE include:

HDPE: It is used in products and packaging
such as milk jugs, detergent bottles, butter tubs, garbage containers, and
water pipes. One-third of all toys are manufactured from HDPE.

UHMWPE: Because of its outstanding
toughness and its cut, wear, and excellent chemical resistance, UHMWPE is used
in a diverse range of applications. These include can- and bottle-handling
machine parts, moving parts on weaving machines, bearings, gears, artificial
joints, edge protection on ice rinks, steel cable replacements on ships, and
butchers’ chopping boards. It is commonly used for the construction of
articular portions of implants used for hip and knee replacements. Like fiber, it
competes with aramid in bulletproof vests.

LLDPE: It is a relatively soft, lightweight
and very popular choice for flexible packaging. It is used for cable coverings,
toys, lids, buckets, and containers. While other applications are available,
LLDPE is used predominantly in film applications due to its toughness,
flexibility, and relative transparency. Product examples range from
agricultural films, Lamination film, industrial film, Saran wrap, and bubble
wrap to multilayer and composite film.

LDPE: It is branched polymer material mainly going into flexible packaging applications. LDPE is used for both rigid containers and plastic film applications such as plastic bags and film wrap. Common uses include, agricultural films, Industrial films, wire & cable, and compounding
