Polyethylene Film is a lightweight, durable thermoplastic. PE is used in applications ranging for films, tubes, plastic parts, laminates, etc. in several markets (packaging, automotive, electrical, etc.).
PE or polyethylene is used in greater volume than any other thermoplastic in the world. This low cost, versatile plastic is also the most commonly known because of its use in consumer markets. Polyethylene film is the substrate used for grocery bags and food packaging. Additionally, PE film is frequently thermoformed and manufactured into plastic bottles, medical packaging and other packaging applications.
PE belongs to polyolefin family of polymers and is classified by its density and branching. The most common types of polyethylene are:
-
- Linear Versions
- High-density-polyethylene HDPE
- Ultra-high-molecular-weight-polyethylene UHMW
- Branched Versions
- Low-density polyethylene LDPE
- Linear low-density polyethylene LLDPE
- Material:
- Polyethylene Print Film
- Form:
- Sheet
