LLDPE

Linear low-density polyethylene

With its short-branched linear structure LLDPE gives higher tensile and puncture strength than LDPE; it is the material of stretch film and heavy-duty sacks. Rotational-moulding grades are the standard for tanks and large containers. It is often blended with LDPE to tune film properties.

Overview

LLDPE is the standard grade of the LLDPE family in the general-purpose plastics group. It is used in applications such as stretch and silage film, heavy-duty sacks, rotationally moulded tanks. The grade with the right flow for injection, extrusion or another process is specified in the quotation together with your quantity and colour; TDS and SDS are sent with the quotation.

Tensile strength is measured to ISO 527, melt flow rate to ISO 1133, heat deflection temperature to ISO 75 (1.8 MPa); flammability class per UL94. Depending on supplier and grade, values can fall outside this range.

Applications

  • Stretch and silage film
  • Heavy-duty sacks
  • Rotationally moulded tanks
  • Closures and flexible containers

Industries: Packaging, Agriculture and irrigation

Documents

The supplier's technical data sheet (TDS) and safety data sheet (SDS) for LLDPE are sent by e-mail with the quoted grade; because the same code has different sheets at different suppliers we do not publish a single file on the site. To see the sheet in advance, request it with the link below.
