Polyethylene PE resin is thermoplastic resin obtained by polymerization of ethylene. In industry, it also includes copolymers of ethylene and a small amount of α-olefins. Polyethylene is odorless, non-toxic, feels like wax, has excellent low temperature resistance, and the lowest operating temperature can reach -100~-70°C. It has good chemical stability and is resistant to most acids and alkalis. PE resin is insoluble in common solvents at room temperature, low water absorption, excellent electrical insulation. 

The polyethylene resin can be processed by general thermoplastic molding methods. It has a wide range of uses, and can be used to manufacture films, packaging materials, containers, pipes, monofilaments, wires and cables, daily necessities, etc., and can also be used as high-frequency insulation materials for TVs and radars.

Classification of Polyethylene Resin

Polyethylene (PE) is one of the simplest molecular structures among resins. It has rich sources of raw materials, low price, excellent electrical insulation and chemical stability, easy molding and processing, and many varieties, which can meet different performance requirements. As an important thermoplastic polymer, PE resin can be divided into the following different types according to different manufacturing processes and molecular structures.

  1. LLDPE resin is non-toxic, tasteless, odorless milky white particles. It has excellent environmental stress cracking resistance and electrical insulation, high heat resistance, impact resistance and puncture resistance, etc. Films, daily necessities, pipes, wires and cables can be produced by injection molding, extrusion, blow molding and other molding methods.
  2. HDPE resin is non-toxic, odorless white granules. Through injection molding, blow molding, extrusion molding, rotational molding and other molding methods, it can produce film products, daily necessities and various hollow containers for industrial use, pipes, calendering tapes and ligatures for packaging, ropes, fishing nets and weaving. Fibers, wires and cables, etc.
  3. LDPE resin is tasteless, odorless, non-toxic, milky white waxy particles with matte surface. Processing methods such as injection molding, extrusion molding, and blow molding can be used. Mainly used as agricultural film, industrial packaging film, pharmaceutical and food packaging film, mechanical parts, daily necessities, building materials, wires, cable insulation, coating and synthetic paper, etc.
