High Density Poly Ethylene has high temperature resistance, stiffness, and good water vapour barrier properties. The Ethylene has a low degree of branching, hence stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength. The Ethylene is hard, has low coefficient of friction, and is abrasion resistant. The High Density Poly Ethylene is used in items and packaging such as milk jugs, detergent bottles, margarine tubs, garbage containers and water pipes.
