The density of high molecular weight high density polyethylene (HMHDPE) typically ranges from 0.945 to 0.965 grams per cubic centimeter.
HDPE= High-density polyethylene
If you think to recycling codes: - 01 is for polyethylene terephtalate (PET) - 02 is for high density polyethylene (HDPE) - 03 is for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) - 04 is for low density polyethylene (LDPE) - 05is for polypropylene (PP)
Most of plastic bags are made of Polyethylene. It could be made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) or Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) or a combination of both in addition to Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE).
High Density Polyethylene
LDPE is Low Density PolyEthylene.HDPE is High Density PolyEthylene.
The chemical name for high-molecular-weight polyethylene is polyethylene. It is often referred to as HMW-HDPE (high molecular weight high density polyethylene).
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
The total output would be 30 kilograms - the sum of the high density polyethylene (25 kg) and the linear low density polyethylene (5 kg) that were mixed together.
HDPE is high density polyethylene used to make plastic pipe which is flexible, thermoplastic and non biodegradable. it is used in refineries for the transportation of water, gas, sewage etc.
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) has a higher density and stronger intermolecular forces, making it more rigid and resistant to heat and chemicals compared to low-density polyethylene (LDPE). LDPE is more flexible and has less strength and chemical resistance, but it is easier to process and has better impact resistance.
