Zusammenfassung: | Polyethylene, a widely used polymeric material, has garnered attention for its light weight and some properties. This review focuses on high-density polyethylene (HDPE), a type of PE recognized for its strength, durability, and ease of processing. HDPE is synthesized through low-pressure polymerization of ethylene, resulting in a material that is resistant to acids and alkalis, non-toxic, and cost-effective. It is used in various applications, from everyday products to construction and medical devices. However, HDPE's susceptibility to UV-induced ageing limits its outdoor use. To address this, researchers have explored incorporating titanium dioxide (TiO2) into HDPE, enhancing its UV resistance and mechanical properties. The review paper highlights the potential of HDPE/TiO2 composites for outdoor applications, highlighting the need for further research to optimize these materials for long-term stability and performance. The ongoing research aim to create composites that can resist prolonged UV exposure without degradation, making them suitable for a generous range of industrial uses. |
