Polyolefins in Tubings
LDPE
- Good flexibility and resistant to inorganic compounds and solvents
- High impact and tensile strength
- Max. continuous use: 54 oC
HDPE
- Stronger & stiffer than LDPE
- Chemical resistance, use temp. (79.5 oC)
- Low moisture vapor transmission
Polypropylene
- Good resistance to inorganic compounds and solvents
- Higher tensile strength, stiffness, surface hardness than PE
- Excellent environmental stress-crack resistant
- Stiff & prone to kinking on bending
- Continuous use temp. (107 oC)
