What is LDPE 1800 S?

LDPE 1800 S is virgin LDPE plastic from LyondellBasell, the world's leading materials manufacturer. This model is favoured for injection and extrusion moulding due to its high flow, flexibility and impact resistance. Its pure additive-free formulation is particularly suitable for applications where material stability and safety are critical.

01  | Core performance highlights of LDPE 1800 S

High fluidity for fast processing

With a melt index of 20 g/10min, LDPE 1800 S enables fast injection moulding and smooth filling of complex cavities, which significantly improves productivity. It is suitable for automated production lines with high cycle times.

Excellent Flexibility and Toughness

Virgin LDPE 1800 S has excellent impact resistance and low-temperature resistance, which is ideal for sports equipment, tool guards, refrigerated packaging and other scenarios, and maintains its toughness in the range of -20℃ to room temperature.

Environmentally friendly and safe: additive-free formulation

No migratory additives such as talcum, antistatic agents, etc. It is suitable for use in bottle caps, food packaging, children's toys, personal care products, and other product lines with stringent requirements for migratory substances.

Dimensionally stable and easy to mould

Low shrinkage and good dimensional stability enable LDPE 1800 S to accurately reproduce the mould design and reduce the error rate of the finished product, which is widely used in engineering accessories and customized plastic parts.

02 | Typical application scenarios: Diversified Processing and Consumer Markets

Injection Moulding: Tool Housings, Sports Protectors, Rigid Components, Engineered Plastic Parts

Packaging: Bottle Caps, Extruded Rigid Packaging, Flexible Multi-Layer Packaging Intermediates

Consumption and Recreation: Sporting Goods, Outdoor Equipment, Impact Resistant Household Goods, etc.

   ✔ Suitable for food, consumer, and industrial products with global regulatory requirements

05 | How can you tell if LDPE 1800 S is right for your project?

Suitable for:

✅ Need for pure material with no additives

✅ High requirements for dimensional accuracy, product softness

✅ Product needs to maintain structural integrity in low temperature environments

✅ Processing equipment with high material flow requirements (e.g., multi-cavity mould injection moulding)

Not recommended:

❌ Structural parts with high material hardness or rigidity requirements

❌ Outdoor exposure applications requiring UV and ageing resistance (consider compounding modification)
