Plastic bags can be made of different polymer types such as:
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
Medium-Density Polyethylene (MDPE)
Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
Linear low-density polyethylene
Higher density polyethylene polymers have stronger cross-links for linking large chains to another which is usually how plastic bags are able to stretch more and can hold heavier objects. Hence being stronger.
