LLDPE has better flexibility than HDPE as is less crystalline. Can be factory fabricated – folded and flaked. Good multiaxial strain properties. They are more flexible than HDPE (one-quarter of the stiffness of HDPE). Excellent large scale puncture resistance compared with HDPE. Good resistance to stress cracking. LLDPE has a far less pronounced yield point LLDPE (Low Density Polyethylene)

Broad chemical resistance. Excellent UV resistance. Good weld strength. Good low temperature properties. Good mechanical properties. Relatively inexpensive. HDPE has a wide spectrum of applications from pond lining, dam lining to waste containment in landfill applications, secondary containment (fuel farms), water storages, tailings dams, evaporation ponds, brine ponds.
