LDPE is thermoplastic.
LDPE is Low Density PolyEthylene.HDPE is High Density PolyEthylene.
PMMA LDPE HDPE
LDPE was prepared for the first time in 1933 at Imperial Chemical Industries.
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.
LDPE is the most cheaper type of polyethylene, suitable for simple objects.

enthalpy LDPE
Because LDPE is an abbreviation of Low Density Poly Ethylene, whereas HDPE stands for High Density Poly Ethylene. This means LDPE is less efficiently packed together than HDPE, due to the larger amount of branching found in LDPE, leading to a weaker material.
LDPE is softest, HDPE is harder, PMMA is much harder than HDPE
LDPE , HDPE, LLDPE
LDPE has excellent resistance to water, moisture and most organic solvents and chemicals (except ones with aromatic or chlorine content). LDPE is the low density version of PE. This has less hardness, stiffness and strength compared to HDPE, but better ductility. It is opaque and only thin foils can be transparent. LDPE is used for packaging like foils, trays and plastic bags both for food and non-food purposes. Used as protective coating on paper, textiles and other plastics, for instance in milk cartons.
