LLDPE Linear Low Density Polyethylene Pipe
We all know the advantages of Polyethylene Pipe such as cost-effectiveness, corrosion resistance, and long service life, which generally meet our plastic piping solution needs. However, when low temperature, medium-to-low pressure, and underground applications require the pipe to also have additional properties like chemical resistance, crack resistance, flexibility, and UV resistance, LLDPE Tubing, as a new type of PE pipe, can easily meet all these requirements. It is especially suitable for industries such as low-pressure liquid transfer, fertilizer irrigation, water treatment, potable water systems, pneumatic lines, and food-contact applications.
What is LLDPE Pipe?
LLDPE pipe stands for Linear Low-Density Polyethylene tubing,which is a type of Polyolefin Tubing made from LLDPE resin through an extrusion molding process, featuring excellent chemical resistance, crack resistance, flexibility, and UV resistance.
LLDPE pipe is widely used in industries such as low-pressure liquid transfer, fertilizer irrigation, water treatment, potable water systems, pneumatic lines, and food-contact applications, and provides function characteristics such as safe transport, impact resistance, weatherability, and low-cost processing.This kind of tubing is especially suitable for engineering scenarios that require a balanced combination of flexibility, corrosion resistance, and cost-effectiveness.
Characteristics of LLDPE Pipe
LLDPE pipe has the following characteristics that you need to understand.
◆ LLDPE has a more linear molecular structure with fewer branches compared to LDPE.
◆ LLDPE has a lower density, typically ranging from 0.915 to 0.935 g/cm^3, whereas LDPE has a density ranging from0.916 to 0.930 g/cm^3.
◆ LLDPE exhibits higher tensile strength and toughness, whereas LDPE is known for its flexibility.
◆ LLDPE generally has higher transparency and gloss compared to LDPE.
◆ LLDPE is produced using polymerization chemistry methods and is relatively newer in terms of manufacturing processes, while LDPE is traditionally manufactured using high-pressure polymerization methods.
In summary, LLDPE pipe combines flexibility with strength, making them an ideal choice for various industrial and agricultural fluid transportation applications.
LLDPE Pipe Application
LLDPE pipe has excellent flexibility and impact resistance, along with good chemical resistance and strong environmental stress crack resistance.
◆ Agricultural irrigation system
◆ Resistant to UV radiation and pesticide corrosion
◆ Horticulture and Greening
◆ Garden watering pipe, greening irrigation pipe
◆ Easy to manually set up, safe and environmentally friendly
LLDPE vs LDPE
LLDPE offers higher strength and better tear resistance with a more linear molecular structure, while LDPE is softer and more flexible with more branching.For a comparison of the characteristics of these two materials or pipes, you can browse this article.
