High Density Polyethylene Market by Process, Application, and Geography - Trends and Forecast to 2019
High density polyethylene (also known as polyethylene high density) is a polyethylene thermoplastic made from natural gas, naphtha, gas oil etc. Production of one kilogram of high density polyethylene consumes around 1.75 kilograms of petroleum (in terms of, both, energy and raw materials). High density polyethylene has densities from 0.93 g/cm3 to 0.97 g/cm3. The comparatively higher density of high density polyethylene provides it with little branching and hence, gives it a stronger intermolecular force and tensile strength. The difference in strength exceeds the difference in density, providing high density polyethylene with higher specific strength.
High density polyethylene is more opaque/ harder and can withstand higher temperatures. It is a highly versatile type of plastic. This becomes evident in the broad portfolio of products that ranges from household goods, food packaging, cosmetics, bottles, care products to technical parts and products for the construction industry.
