Good adhesion is usually the key requirement in extrusion coating. A coating which does not adhere to the substrate or which can be easily peeled off is worthless.

Important benefits can be seen with the processability and end use properties of LDPE and LLDPE by blending the polymers together in various proportions.

As a general class of materials, polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) are recognized for their excellent resistance to harsh chemical environments.

Uneven shrinkage due to poor mould design or processing conditions can lead to distortion or warping in moulding.

The thermal properties of polyethylenes do not vary significantly with molecular weight and density, the exception being the melting point.

Have you ever wondered why there are so many grades of polyethylene available with different melt flow rates and material densities?
