LDPE is a thermoplastic polymer produced by high-pressure free-radical polymerization of ethylene. The polymer chains are
Key properties of LDPE include a density of about 0.91–0.94 g/cm3, a melting point around 105–115°C, good
LDPE is widely processed into thin films by extrusion and blown-film methods, making it common for packaging
Recycling and environmental aspects
LDPE is widely recyclable, typically assigned resin code 4. It is commonly accepted in curbside programs and
