polyethylene impact resistance

Polyethylene impact resistance refers to the material's ability to withstand sudden forces or shocks without cracking or breaking. Think of it as how well the plastic can handle bumps, drops, or hits during use. Materials with high impact resistance absorb and distribute the energy from impacts, making them durable and less likely to fracture. This property varies with different types of polyethylene and their formulations, influencing their suitability for applications like containers, pipes, or protective gear where resistance to impact is important.
