Production Process of LLDPE
The production of LLDPE typically involves the copolymerization of ethylene with alpha-olefins such as butene, hexene, or octene. This process occurs in either a solution phase reactor or a gas phase reactor, with the choice of catalyst and technology affecting the polymer’s final properties.
Uses of LLDPE Granules
In Packaging
LLDPE granules are extensively used in the packaging industry, particularly for the production of film applications such as plastic bags, liners, covers, stretch wrap, and shrink wrap. Their durability and flexibility under stress make them perfect for protecting and preserving products.
In Agriculture
In the agricultural sector, LLDPE is used to make silage covers and tarpaulins, which help in preserving grain and forage. It is also used in water management systems like drip irrigation tubing and barrier films.
Other Applications
Beyond packaging and agriculture, LLDPE granules are employed in the manufacture of toys, lids, buckets, containers, and can liners. They are also increasingly used in automotive parts due to their resistance to chemicals and oils.
