PRODUCT INFORMATION
Polyethylene is a common thermoplastic resin typically used for injection molding applications.
Polymers with densities ranging from .941 to .965 and over are considered high density. High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) has a high-impact strength with a higher operating temperature than LDPE. HDPE has excellent tensile strength, energy consumption, abrasion resistance, and resistance to stress cracks, and good chemical resistance and electrical properties. Injection-molded HDPE is resistant to warpage and distortion.
FEATURES
- Excellent tensile strength
- Abrasion resistance

- Water/salt resistance
- Lightweight
LIMITATIONS
- Poor heat resistance, high thermal expansion
- Relatively low physicals, can fail under high mechanical stress
- Soft surface
APPLICATIONS
- Milk, juice, and water bottles
- Yogurt containers
- Margarine tubs
- Laundry products
