Reports
In the past few years breakthrough developments have been in the field of packaging. The increasing demand for linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) films market is due to its good toughness, better tear resistance and high mechanical properties when compared with other packaging films. LLDPE films are generally of two types: plain LLDPE films and white LLDPE films. Plain LLDPE films are usually used for packaging of liquid products. While white LLDPE films are white colored film which provides greater ultraviolet (UV) light resistance and is generally used for shampoo, liquid soap/ shower gels and other similar products. LLDPE films has better tear and impact resistance film properties when compared to low density polyethylene (LDPE) film. In order to achieve better properties, converters / manufacturers often use layers with LLDPE films, as LLDPE Films are not as easy to manufacture as compared to other packaging films. LLDPE films are transparent and glossy which helps manufactures to make rather attractive packaging formats, thus making the shelf space more attractive for consumers.
LLDPE Films: Market Dynamic
The primary growth factor for the LLDPE films market is the high demand from the flexible food packaging segment. LLDPE films are also used in construction industry as water barriers as this film contains some percent of organophilic layered double hydroxides (OLDHs) which shows optimal thermal, and water vapor barrier properties. LLDPE films is one of the widely preferred films due to its barrier and other physical properties followed by high density polyethylene (HDPE) film. LLDPE films preserves the freshness of the food and keep them hygienic. LLDPE films have lower production and transformation cost when compared to other polyethylene film. LLDPE films being economical and has an edge over other films due to high strength, high creep resistance and resistance to tear propagation. This is ultimately expected to enhance demand for LLDPE films. Polyethylene films do not meet the requirements of good resistance, moisture control, and low temperature toughness, however in contrast, LLDPE films can be laminated to fulfil the market requirement. Moreover, LLDPE films market is hampered due to poor gas barrier properties.
