Hi can anyone give me some idea on how to dissolve polythene powder in solvent.
Hi everyone,
I do know this thread is a little older, but I just stumbled upon an interesting file that might help with this topic. Currently we are working with Xylene, but we are going to try 1,2,4-Trichlorobenzene in the near future.
If the link to the file does not work search for “Kendrion Chemical resistance of plastics”. If that will not work just write me a message and I will provide the file.
Cheers!

Hi, Good Afternoon
Polyethylene is an organic thermoplastic solid with a low melting temperature. Polyethylene plastic finds ample uses as thin sheets in the wrapping and packaging industry, in food processing industry and in automobile and print industries. Polyethylene occurs in two forms: high density and low density polyethylene known respectively as HDPE and LDPE. Both forms of polyethylene are highly resistant to acids, caustic alkaline liquids and inorganic solvents. This makes polyethylene useful as a container in laboratories for storing acids and bases. However some organic solvents such as benzene and acetone can dissolve polyethylene.

Hi everbody. I hope it will help you

Hi,
xylene and Decalin can be used to disslove PE at elevated temperature
Xylene for low/medium/high molecular weight PP, LDPE, HDPE; cyclohexane for low molecular weight PE wax
