1. Basic properties
Polyethylene (hereinafter referred to as PE) is one of the five major synthetic resins, and its output accounts for more than 40% of the total output of general resins in the world. It is the synthetic resin variety with the largest output and the largest import in China. LLDPE products are non-toxic, tasteless and odorless, showing milky white particles.
classify
PE is mainly divided into three categories: linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), low density polyethylene (LDPE) and high density polyethylene (HDPE).
3. Application area
The main application fields are agricultural films, packaging films, wires and cables, pipes and coated products. LLDPE is mainly used to make films because it has high tensile strength, good puncture resistance and tear resistance.
4. Place of production
The world LLDPE production capacity is mainly concentrated in North America, Asia, Western Europe and the Middle East. Among them, the Middle East is the region with the fastest growth in production capacity. In terms of countries, the United States, Saudi Arabia, Canada, China and Brazil rank among the top five in the world.
