Polyethylene

Film defects are process signals. Connect die flow, cooling symmetry, and winding stress to improve gauge control and roll quality.

Polyolefins define modern plastics, but their chemical stability now drives a new search for smarter transformation pathways

Social commerce shifts beauty packaging into feeds. Engineers must control gloss, haze, defects, and durability while meeting barrier targets.

Dynamic covalent networks allow crosslinked polyethylene to flow, weld, and relax stress during processing.

A two-year program conducted by CEFLEX gathered information from 1,700 data points and over 600 packaging samples. As a result, a design guide was developed to ensure the practical recyclability of flexible packaging.

As manufacturers embrace Industry 4.0, collaborative robots leveraging machine learning (ML) bring autonomy and efficiency to the factory floor.

Natural and mineral fillers enhance UV resistance in rotomolded polyethylene, reducing surface oxidation and improving material durability.

Explore how MDO units and EVOH resins enable recyclable mono-material packaging, meeting European PPWR rules while improving strength, barrier, and sustainability.

PCR use doubled since 2019, yet 2025 packaging targets slip from supply, costs, and infrastructure gaps—what must change to meet 2030 goals?

Deep in the western Pacific Ocean, researchers investigated the microorganisms contributing to plastic degradation.
