Polymer

Many common classes of polymers are composed of hydrocarbons, compounds of carbon and hydrogen. These polymers are specifically made of carbon atoms bonded together, one to the next, into long chains that are called the backbone of the polymer. Because of the nature of carbon, one or more other atoms can be attached to each carbon atom in the backbone.

There are polymers that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms. Polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutylene, polystyrene and polymethylpentene are examples of these. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has chlorine attached to the all-carbon backbone. Teflon has fluorine attached to the all-carbon backbone.

LLDPE


Brahma-Lene : LLDPE


BCPL has set up an LLDPE/HDPE Swing unit which is designed to process 2, 20,000 TPA of LLDPE and HDPE.

Plant Configuration
Capacity of the Unit: 2, 20,000 TPA
Licensor: M/s INEOS Technology, UK
Technology: Gas Phase Polymerization
Raw Material
Monomer: Ethylene
Co Monomer: Butene-1 and Hexene
Catalyst: Ziegler Natta Catalyst and Chromium (Future)
Co Catalyst: Tri Ethyl Aluminum (TEAL)

About Polyethylene - LLDPE/HDPE

Polyethylene is a thermoplastic polymer consisting of long chains produced by combing the ingredient monomer ethylene (IUPAC name ethene). It is manufactured from ethylene through gas phase polymerization in presence of a catalyst such as Ziegler Natta or Chromium (Future) in BCPL. Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) is a substantially linear polymer (polyethylene), with significant numbers of short branches, commonly made by copolymerization of ethylene with longer-chain olefins. HDPE has a low degree of branching and thus stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength.

Properties of LLDPE

  • Higher tensile strength than LDPE
  • Exhibits higher impact and puncture resistance than LDPE
  • Lower thickness film can be blown compared to LDPE
  • Better environmental stress cracking resistance
  • Semi rigid, Very tough and weather proof
  • Good Chemical resistance.

Application of LLDPE

LLDPE is used for plastic bags and sheets (where it allows using lower thickness than comparable LDPE), plastic wrap, stretch wrap ,pouches, toys, covers, lids, pipes, buckets and containers, covering of cables, geo-membranes, and mainly flexible tubing.

PP


Brahma-Pol : Polypropylene


BCPL has set up a polypropylene unit which is designed to process 60,000 TPA of polymer grade polypropylene.

Plant Configuration
Capacity of the Unit: 60,000 TPA
Licensor: M/s Novolen Technology, Germany
Technology: Stirred Gas Phase Reaction
Raw Material
Monomer: Propylene
Co Monomer: Ethylene (Future)
Catalyst: Lynx [Ziegler Natta (Titanium Based)]
Co Catalyst: Tri Ethyl Aluminum (TEAL)

About Polypropylene

It is a linear structure based on the monomer CnH2n. It is manufactured from propylene gas in presence of a catalyst such as titanium chloride. Beside PP is a by-product of oil refining processes.

Properties of polypropylene

  • Light in weight For example, PP has the lowest density (i.e 0.90-0.92 g/cm3) of the resins.
  • Excellent resistance to stress and high resistant to cracking (i.e. it has high tensile and compressive strength)
  • High operational temperatures with a melting point of 160°C
  • Excellent dielectric properties
  • It is highly resistant to most alkalis and acid, organic solvents, degreasing agents and electrolytic attack. On the contrary is less resistance to aromatic, aliphatic and chlorinated solvents and UV.
  • Non-toxic
  • Non-staining
  • Easy to produce, assembly and an economic material.

Application of Polypropylene

In general Polypropylene can be used for manufacturing housewares, packaging, monofilaments and film tapes, pipes, containers, boat hulls, seat shells and automotive parts e.g. battery cases and bumpers, semiconductors etc. Its resistance to bacterial growth makes it suitable to be used in medical equipment.

Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) is a substantially linear polymer (polyethylene), with significant numbers of short branches, commonly made by copolymerization of ethylene with longer-chain olefins. HDPE has a low degree of branching and thus stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength.

Properties of HDPE

  • Flexible, Translucent/Waxy and Weather proof
  • Good low temperature toughness(to -60° C)
  • Good chemical resistance
  • Easy to process by most methods and low cost

Application of HDPE

HDPE is used in products and packaging such as milk jugs, detergent bottles, margarine tubs, garbage containers and water pipes.
