DENSETEC LDPE

Chemical Family: PolyethylenesPolyolefins

Densetec LDPE Sheet is a material that's soft, flexible, and tough, even at low temperatures. Because of the fact that Densetec LDPE has very good formability traits and is very pliable, it is an ideal material for the orthotics and prosthetics industry. Densetec LDPE has very good chemical resistance and low moisture absorption which makes it ideal for the chemical industry. Densetec LDPE also has exceptional environmental stress crack resistance properties.
