PE
Polyethylene (PE) comes in various densities, with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) being stronger and more rigid, and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) being more flexible and pliable. It is resistant to moisture, chemicals, and impact, making it ideal for containers, pipes, and films. Despite its widespread use, its environmental impact is significant due to its slow degradation rate, prompting efforts to enhance its recyclability and develop sustainable alternatives.
