Low density polyethylene (LDPE) is a thermoplastic composed of petroleum. Low density polyethylene is one of the most demanded polymers. Low-density polyethylene, which is very economical, appears in a very transparent form. LDPE, which is widely used in the communication, energy and industrial sectors, has a wide structure.

Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Properties
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is an abbreviation of the English words Low-density polyethylene. It is the first type of polyethylene. Low density polyethylene has high chemical resistance. For this reason, it is often preferred in the field of coating and protection. It has a protective feature against heat and moisture. Low density polyethylene has more branching than high density polyethylene. Therefore, the intermolecular bond is weak. It has low tensile strength and high elasticity. It is resistant to tearing. It is not affected by chemicals.

The production of low density polyethylene takes place under very high pressure, at medium temperature (420 – 570 K). Low density polyethylene is available in the density range of 0.910 – 0.940 g/cm. Its melting point is 120°C. Its maximum usable temperature is known as 80°C. It is unresponsive at room temperature, except for high oxidation factors. All in flexible, translucent or focal variations. It has a very strong structure. It has a wrinkle-free structure.
