Low-Density Polypropylene (LDPE)

Low-Density Polypropylene (LDPE) is a type of plastic known for its flexibility, transparency, and toughness. It is made from polymerizing propylene molecules under specific conditions, resulting in a material with a less organized structure that gives it these properties. LDPE is commonly used in making flexible products like plastic bags, wrappers, and containers because of its durability and ease of processing. It is lightweight, resistant to chemicals, and has a low melting point, making it versatile for various packaging and industrial applications while being relatively inexpensive to produce.
