POLYETHYLENE PROPERTY

[tmc1]

I would like to know the E-Modulus (N/m2) of High Density Polyethylene. Anybody knows?

quick google search yielded this:

"The Modulus of Elasticity of PVC 1120 at 73.4°F is 400 000 psi, while that for HDPE 3408 is 115 000 psi."

there's 100s more of pages, just search again for more detailed data.

hth,

The ASTM addresses properties of PE. A link to the ASTM specification is available under "Technical Papers" online at
