Polyethylene Resin Prices and Manufacturing Process

Polyethylene resins are thermoplastic polymers that are used in the manufacturing process of stretch films and polybags. Polyethylene is a combination of polymers and ethylene, which have mechanical, chemical, electrical, thermal, and optical properties. Polyethylene burns at a slow rate, does not absorb water, and cannot be imprinted if it is not pretreated. Polyethylene can turn brittle when it is exposed to sunlight, therefore, a UV stabilizer should be mixed in.

Polyethylene resin is a malleable chemical composite that is very accessible and inexpensive to manufacture. Resin is composed of complex chains of ethylene monomers, small molecules that bond together in a similar pattern repeatedly to form larger compounds called polymers. To activate and manipulate these polymers, manufacturers heat them, as they will retain their shape at room temperature. Most polymers are manufactured synthetically, and many variations can be recycled. While polyethylene resin may currently not be biodegradable, there are studies being conducted worldwide to produce biodegradable polyethylene resin that is environmentally friendly.

There are three types of polyethylene resins: low density polyethylene (LDPE), high density polyethylene (HDPE), and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE). Various resin compositions allow for multiple uses whether they are being used at home or in industrial settings. We provide our customers with LDPE, which is used by manufacturers to produce plastic shopping bags and stretch films. Despite its lower strength than other types of resins, LDPE is a highly flexible material that has high stretchability, which allows it to stretch without tearing. LDPE boasts superior sealing and protective qualities which make it a popular choice for manufacturing stretch film.

At Danshar Polybag and Resin and Toronto Stretch Wrap, we remain committed to supplying our customers with excellent polyethylene resin prices. With a variety of specific resins available, your business can manufacture stretch film or polybags with the right widths and gauge combinations. We are a manufacturing agent and distribution company who can assist you in finding the resin that is suitable to the needs of your business. You will be impressed by our expertise and professionalism. Contact us today for bulk resin orders.
