What Is an LLDPE Tubing?
LLDPE tubing is a tube made from linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE).
It is based on the characteristic of LLDPE having a high degree of crystallinity, making it resistant to deformation from heat and pressure. This allows LLDPE tubing to be easily processed into various shapes. LLDPE tubing finds wide application in industrial, construction, agricultural, and household applications. In industrial applications, it is used for piping, hoses, and packaging materials, while in construction, it is applied in gutters, drainage pipes, and insulation materials.
Notable features of LLDPE tubing include its excellent strength, heat resistance, chemical resistance, lightweight, and good processability. When using, it is important to note that LLDPE is sensitive to heat and UV light, so it should be kept away from high temperatures and direct sunlight. Additionally, since it is flammable, it should be kept away from sources of ignition.
