High-density polyethylene
Class of polyethylenes
High-density polyethylene
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is one of several varieties of polyethylene (PE). PE, the dominant synthetic polymer, is produced in many forms that differ in terms of molecular weight, branching, and the incorporation of comonomers. Often these features are captured in terms of the density of the material. All forms of PE are colorless, odorless, rather chemically inert solids produced by the polymerization of ethylene, the monomer. The higher density of HDPE and particularly the lack of significant branching of its polymer chains results in a stronger, harder, more opaque material than lower density PE.
