Beschreibungen
This book provides a necessary bridge between the values of engineering end-use parameters of polyethylene resins and their scientific molecular and structural characteristics. The main goal is to translate such common parameters, such as the melt index of a resin or the dart impact strength of a film sample, into the universal language of polymer science. After this translation is completed, many facets of the resin properties become transparent and easily explainable.<br />The second edition is brought up to date with coverage of new types of catalysts and polymerization processes, and a new section on PE recycling. The chapter on melt indexes is modified and simplified, that on stress cracking has a significant update, and a new chapter on the nature of LLDPE extractables is added.<br /><br />Contents:<br />• Educational Minimum: Manufacture, Structure, and Mechanical Properties of Polyethylene Resins<br />• Melt Index and Melt Flow Ratio of Polyethylene Resin<br />• Melting Point of Polyethylene Resin<br />• Crystallinity Degree and Density of Polyethylene Resins<br />• End-Use Mechanical Properties of Polyethylene Film<br />• End-Use Testing of High Molecular Weight HDPE and MDPE Resins<br />• Nature of LLDPE Extractables
