Commodity Polymer

PVC

Polyvinyl chloride is a versatile synthetic plastic polymer commonly used in various applications due to its durability, chemical resistance, and ease of processing. It is used in construction for pipes, flooring and in profile applications such as windows and doors. It is used in healthcare sector for medical devices, blood bags and tubing. It is also used in non food packaging, insulation for wires and cables, credit cards, and toys. It is third-most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer, following polyethylene and polypropylene.

HDPE

High-Density Polyethylene(HDPE) is a thermoplastic polymer known for its high strength-to-density ratio. HDPE is characterized by minimal branching, which results in stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength. It is well known for its strength, chemical resistance and low moisture absorption. As it is one of the most versatile material it is used in wide range of application. It is used for making bottles such as milk jugs, detergent bottles and juice containers. Due to its durability and chemical resistance it is widely used in water, gas and sewer pipe manufacturing. Its industrial application ranges from agriculture, construction, consumer goods and automotive sector.

LDPE

Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is a thermoplastic polymer made from the monomer ethylene. It is characterized by its low density due to its highly branched polymer chain structure, which results in material that is both flexible and tough. It has low moisture absorption, making it suitable for waterproof applications. It is semi transparent making it suitable for applications where some visibility is required making it ideal material for films, bags and other flexible packaging applications. It can be easily processed and molded into various shapes through techniques like extrusion and blow molding.

LLDPE

Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) is a type of polyethylene polymer produced by copolymerizing ethylene with longer-chain olefins, such as butene, hexene, or octene. Unlike LDPE, LLDPE has a linear structure with short, uniform branches, which enhances its mechanical properties. It combines high tensile strength with excellent flexibility, making it resistant to puncture and impact and superior tear resistance compared to LDPE. It offers low permeability to water and gases, making it suitable for packaging applications. It is extensively used for stretch film, shrink film, and liners.
