LLDPE has shorter and more branches its' chains are able slide against each other upon elongation without becoming entangled like LPDE which has long branching chains that would get caught on each other. This gives LLDPE higher tensile strength and higher impact and puncture resistance than the LDPE

What is the difference between LDPE and PVC?
the difference is that in pvc h-c is replaced with c-cl. c-cl is less oxidisible by air while h-cl is oxidisable hence flamable while cl-c doesn't

Why the tensile strength lower for LDPE than for HDPE?
HDPE has higher density therefore it has greater tensile strength
What are the types of polythene?
LDPE , HDPE, LLDPE
What are the types of polythene bags?
LDPE , HDPE, LLDPE
How do you reduce the tearibility of the LDPE and HDPE?
Usually with a 'rubberizing' additive that contains LLDPE (Linear low density polyethylene) More branches and better bonding, less amorphous. Greater tensile and impact strength than LDPE or HDPE.
Which type of plastic are plastic shopping bags made of?
They can be made from several different things: Butene Copolymer Copolymer - HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) Ethylene Vinyl Acetate HDPE - Reclaim LLDPE (Linear Low Density Polyethylene) -Hexene Copolymer Homopolymer - HDPE Homopolymer - LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) Homopolymer - PP (Polypropylene) PP-IM (Impact) LDPE-Reclaim LLDPE-OC (Octene Copolymer) LDPE Copolymer For more information go to http://www.townsendpolymer.com
Is polyethylene a smart polymer?
YES! it is cheap, easily processed, chemically inert, flexible, low melting point, used in a variety of forms (HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE).
What is difference between LDPE and HDPE?
LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) has more branching in its molecular structure than HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), giving it a lower density and flexibility. HDPE is more rigid and has a higher tensile strength compared to LDPE. LDPE is commonly used for packaging and bags, while HDPE is often used for bottles and containers.
What is the material of a soda bottle ie coca cola label its some sort of plastic film?
someone please answer, or give your ideas. its a plastic polyethylene i think but im not sure which one. its for a plastic packaging class: is it lldpe, ldpe, pe
What type of plastic is plastic bags?
Most of plastic bags are made of Polyethylene. It could be made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) or Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) or a combination of both in addition to Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE).
What is melting point of ldpe?
between 105-115 °C
Is ldpe a thermoplastic?
LDPE is thermoplastic.
What is the difference between LDPE and PVC?
the difference is that in pvc h-c is replaced with c-cl. c-cl is less oxidisible by air while h-cl is oxidisable hence flamable while cl-c doesn't
What are HDPE's and LDPE's?
LDPE is Low Density PolyEthylene.HDPE is High Density PolyEthylene.
