How Additives Improve HDPE Properties?
Additives such as antioxidants, UV stabilizers, and processing aids can be added to HDPE to improve its resistance to degradation, enhance its UV resistance, and aid in processing. Blending HDPE with other polymers or additives can also alter its properties, such as increasing flexibility or impact resistance. Cross-linking HDPE through processes like radiation or chemical cross-linking can enhance its thermal stability and mechanical properties. Additionally, fillers like talc or calcium carbonate can be incorporated to modify properties such as stiffness or density.
