LDPE

LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene), also known as a polyolefin material, is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic material that offers strong chemical resistance, high flexibility, and low moisture absorption.

LDPE

LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene), also known as a polyolefin material, is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic material that offers strong chemical resistance, high flexibility, and low moisture absorption.
LDPE is a water-resistant, cost-efficient, long-lasting, and 100% recyclable multi-purpose material used for a variety of commercial and residential applications. Compared to high-density polyethylene, LDPE is more flexible and lighter in weight, making it an ideal solution for applications that are vacuum- or drape-formed. It exhibits excellent impact resistance, as well as chemical resistance, making it suitable for work surfaces requiring corrosion resistance.

Light-transmission options range from translucent to opaque. LDPE is the material of choice in laboratory dispensing and wash bottles due to its excellent flexibility and the fact that it is virtually unbreakable. LDPE is also commonly used for die pads, hinges, impact pads, and orthotic and prosthetic devices. Polymershapes can meet your LDPE needs with a sheet, rod and tube, in standard and custom sizes, from leading-edge suppliers

Chemical Resitant

Excellent resistance to acids, alcohols, bases and esters. It provides good resistance to aldehydes, ketones and vegetable oils.

Impact Strength

LDPE lower density and branched molecules are able to keep the material lightweight yet offer high resistance to impacts.

100% Recyclable

Many current LDPE products such as bottles, containers and lids are able to be 100% recycled. This helps minimize the environmental impact of packaging.
