How can I successfully undertake a DIY project involving HDPE molding?

To successfully undertake a DIY project involving HDPE molding, you should start by researching and understanding the properties of HDPE material. Next, gather the necessary tools and equipment such as a heat gun or oven for heating the HDPE. Design your project and create a mold to shape the HDPE. Heat the HDPE to its melting point and carefully mold it into the desired shape using the mold. Allow the HDPE to cool and solidify before removing it from the mold. Practice safety precautions and follow instructions carefully for a successful project.

What type of plastic is a detergent bottle made of?

Generally detergent bottle are made of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) depending on the detergent type if it is washing liquid or soap then PET is preferable due to its transparency properties. HDPE is more preferable for other type of detergents such as bleach, shampoo etc. and these products are highly chemical which requires a good chemical resistance. Therefore, HDPE has better properties for detergent container purposes; excellent flexural strength, good impact strength, very good chemical resistance, good fatigue resistance and service temperature to 126 °C. HDPE detergent bottles can be manufactured by extrusion blow moulding as it is suitable for mass production and cheaper than other techniques.
