Solution
Uses of high-density polyethylene:
- HDP is used in the manufacture of toys and other household articles like buckets, dustbins, bottles, pipes, etc.
- It is used to prepare laboratory wares and other objects where high tensile strength and stiffness is required.
Properties of high-density polyethylene:
- HDP is crystalline, melting point in the range of 144 - 150 °C.
- It is much stiffer than LDP and has high tensile strength and hardness.
- It is more resistant to chemicals than LDP.
