    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-density_polyethylene

    In a test at the end of 212 days' incubation, emissions recorded were 5.8 nmol g −1 d −1 of methane, 14.5 nmol g −1 d −1 of ethylene, 3.9 nmol g −1 d −1 of ethane, and 9.7 nmol g −1 d −1 of propylene. When incubated in air, LDPE emits methane and ethylene at rates about 2 times and about 76 times, respectively, more than in water.
