3. Biodegradable polythene film - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodegradable_polythene_film

   Polyethylene or polythene film biodegrades naturally, albeit over a long period of time. Methods are available to make it more degradable under certain conditions of sunlight , moisture , oxygen , and composting and enhancement of biodegradation by reducing the hydrophobic polymer and increasing hydrophilic properties.

4. Polyolefin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyolefin

   Polypropylene is commonly used in car bumpers, interior trims, and other components [19] where TiO₂ is added to improve the UV stability of the plastic, ensuring that parts do not degrade or lose color when exposed to sunlight over time. [20] Polyethylene films are widely used in agriculture for greenhouses, mulching, and silage wraps. [21]

   Plastic film is a thin continuous polymeric material. Thicker plastic material is often called a "sheet". Thicker plastic material is often called a "sheet". These thin plastic membranes are used to separate areas or volumes, to hold items, to act as barriers, or as printable surfaces.

6. Expanded polyethylene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_polyethylene

   Expanded polyethylene copolymers (EPC) are also known - such as 50:50 (weight) materials with polystyrene. Though other properties are intermediate between the two bases, toughness for the copolymer exceeds either, with good tensile and puncture resistance. It is particularly applicable for re-usable products. [1]

7. Polytarp sails - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytarp_sails

   The most attractive, durable polytarp sails are usually made from a heavier white polytarp material. Generally, polysails are made from white ultraviolet-protected (UV-protected) material that is 12–16 mils (0.30–0.40 mm) thick (1 mil is .001 inches) and weighs about 6–8 ounces per square yard (200-270 grams per square meter) —about twice the weight and thickness of the common colored ...
