  2. Cross-linked polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-linked_polyethylene

    A cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) pipe. Cross-linked polyethylene, commonly abbreviated PEX, XPE or XLPE, is a form of polyethylene with cross-links.It is used predominantly in building services pipework systems, hydronic radiant heating and cooling systems, domestic water piping, insulation for high tension (high voltage) electrical cables, and baby play mats.

  3. Polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene

    Polyethylene was first synthesized by the German chemist Hans von Pechmann, who prepared it by accident in 1898 while investigating diazomethane. [12] [a] [13] [b] When his colleagues Eugen Bamberger and Friedrich Tschirner characterized the white, waxy substance that he had created, they recognized that it contained long −CH 2 − chains and termed it polymethylene.

  4. High-density polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-density_polyethylene

    High-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polyethylene high-density (PEHD) is a thermoplastic polymer produced from the monomer ethylene. It is sometimes called "alkathene" or "polythene" when used for HDPE pipes. [1] With a high strength-to-density ratio, HDPE is used in the production of plastic bottles, corrosion-resistant piping, geomembranes and ...

  5. Biodegradable polythene film - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodegradable_polythene_film

    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.

  6. Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-molecular...

    Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE, UHMW) is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. Also known as high-modulus polyethylene (HMPE), it has extremely long chains, with a molecular mass usually between 3.5 and 7.5 million amu. [1] The longer chain serves to transfer load more effectively to the polymer backbone by strengthening ...

  7. High-voltage cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_cable

    High-voltage cable. Figure 1: Segments of high-voltage XLPE cables. A high-voltage cable (HV cable), sometimes called a high-tension cable (HT cable), is a cable used for electric power transmission at high voltage. A cable includes a conductor and insulation. Cables are considered to be fully insulated.
