Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is a type of plastic material known for its flexibility, low density, and high impact resistance. It is made from the polymerization of ethylene and has a branched molecular structure, which gives it a lower density than other polyethylene types. LDPE is commonly used in applications like plastic bags, squeeze bottles, tubing, and insulating materials due to its toughness, chemical resistance, and ease of processing.
