- Polyethylene materials are divided
into categories based on their specific gravity:
- A- low density polyethylene
having specific gravity of 0.910 - 0.925,
B- medium density polyethylene, specific gravity of 0.926 - 0.940,
and
C- high density (linear) polyethylene, specific gravity 0.941-
0.965.
- The major advantages of polyethylenes
are light weight, excellent chemical resistance, low moisture
absorption, good impact strength, excellent low temperature properties,
superb dielectric properties and low coefficient of friction.
Unmodified polyethylenes can be produced from resins which are
approved for food applications.
- Increases in density result
in: improved chemical resistance, greater hardness and tensile
strength, better gas barrier properties, greater creep and temperature
resistance.
- Polyethylenes can be shaped
and formed by standard heat forming techniques. If polyethylene
is heated to within 5°C of its melting point, it can be shaped
easily and will retain its imposed form on cooling. High density
polyethylene for instance should be heated to a range of 130°C
- 135°C for forming.
- Polyethylenes can be readily
welded with hot air. However, since oxygen at high temperatures
has a tendency to degrade these materials, inert gas such as
nitrogen should be used to weld this material.
