About Linear Low Density Polyethylene
Linear low density polyethylene refers to a linear polymer containing several short branches and formed by the copolymerization of ethylene. Linear low density polyethylene is a mixed form of low density polyethylene, having more flexibility, conformability, pliability, softness, and more tensile strength. Its large number of short branches slide against each other upon elongation, thus making the polymer more flexible and strong. It is used in film application, heavy duty industrial bags, injection molding parts, liquid paper board coatings, pond liners, wires and cables, carrier bags, and pipes.
The global linear low density polyethylene market can be segmented into five divisions based on type: Films and sheets, injection molding, rotomolding, pipe and extrusion, and others. Linear low density polyethylene acts as a gas barrier and prevents substances from spoiling. Hence, its wide acceptance in the packaging sector.
Technavio analysts forecast the global linear low density polyethylene market to grow at a CAGR of 4.54% during 2014-2019.
