The PE plastic family is organized by molecular weight of the polymer and the major subcategories of PE are High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Medium-Density Polyethylene (MDPE), Linear Low-Density Polyeythylene (LLDPE) and Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE). PE is commonly used to make bottles, crates, toys, grocery bags, pails, trash can liners, films, and a wide variety of other assorted items.The different grades of PE are used in virtually every type of plastic manufacturing technique available.
