HDXLPE VS. HDPE "BENEFITS OF HIGH DENSITY CROSSLINKED POLYETHYLENE"
PROCESS/KANA INC. furnishes plastic tanks in both High Density Crosslinked Polyethylene(HDXLPE) and High Density Polyethylene(HDPE) resins. Both types of materials are effective when used in the proper application. HDPE resins are less expensive than HDXLPE resins, but do not have the overall performance and strength of HDXLPE. Understanding the differences and knowing when to use each product can help save money, protect the environment and improve employee safety.
HDXLPE = HIGH DENSITY CROSSLINKED POLYETHYLENE
- Impact Resilient, Environmental Stress Cracking Resistance, Lower Notch Sensitivity, Long Term Hydrostatic Strength, Maximum Corrosion Protection, Maintenance Free, Seamless One-Piece Design
HDPE = HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE
- Cost Effective Liquid storage solution, Corrosion Protection, Acceptable Resin for Non-Critical Applications, Maintenance Free, Seamless One-Piece Design
In conclusion, If price is the only deciding factor for your purchase of a polyethylene liquid storage tank, then an HDPE resin is the answer. But, if performance, safety and long-term properties are a concern, then you will definitely want to choose an HDXLPE resin for you next chemical storage application.
