Injection Molding HDPE
High Density Polyethylene - Injection Molding
HDPE (High Density PolyEthylene) is a polyethylene plastic commonly used in injection molding applications because of its high tensile strength, impact resistance, and melt flow index, not to mention its relatively low cost.
HDPE is just one type of polyethylene, and is usually defined as being polyethylene with a density of 0.941 [...]
Blow Molding HDPE
Blow Molding High Density Polyethylene
HDPE is a relatively low cost high, strength plastic which is used in a wide range of applications, one set of these being blow molding applications. HDPE is an acronym which stands for High Density PolyEthylene, a type of polyethylene which is defined as having a density equal to or greater [...]
Off Grade HDPE Pellets
Off Grade HDPE Pellets are an excellent homogeneous source of off grade HDPE. For those not familiar with Off Grade HDPE, it is simply a term used to describe HDPE that does not fall within one standard grade or another. Falling under the umbrella of HDPE are many differing grades of HDPE, suitable for different [...]
Pipe Grade HDPE Pellets
Pipe Grade HDPE Pellets are HDPE pellets suitable for the production of HDPE Pipes. Pipe Grade HDPE is a type of HDPE that is harder and stronger than most other forms of HDPE. This is because pipe grade HDPE must be able to stand up to industrial pressures. HDPE Pipes are commonly used in underground, [...]
Film Grade HDPE Pellets
Not all HDPE pellets are created equal. Even though HDPE refers to high density polyethylene, there are still variations in the density of the polyethylene that make it suitable for some applications, and not for others. This is where the grading system has been instituted by many purveyors of HDPE pellets and manufacturers of HDPE [...]
Injection Molding Grade HDPE Pellets
HDPE pellets come in a wide range of grades. Injection molding grade HDPE pellets are pellets with a high MFI, or melt flow index. Melt flow index is a term relating to how viscous HDPE is when melted. HDPE used in injection molding must be very runny when melted, so that it can be injected [...]
Blow Molding Grade HDPE Pellets
Blow molding grade HDPE is a certain type of HDPE. HDPE stands for High Density Polyethylene, and is produced in the same fashion as other forms of polyethylene, but in such a fashion as to ensure that the polyethylene molecule chains are long and densely packed, as opposed to being branching and not so densely [...]
Virgin Grade HDPE Pellets
Virgin Grade HDPE pellets are freshly produced HDPE pellets that have never before been used in any manufacturing applications whatsoever. HDPE stands for High Density Polyethylene, and is a plastic that begins its life in the form of crude oil, from which naphtha is extracted, and then cracked at high temperatures to release ethylene gas.
