The plastic polyethylene (PE) is an extremely versatile product of the chemical industry. PE is used to make films of all kinds, beverage packaging, canisters, and even pipe jackets. The partially crystalline, nonpolar thermoplastic is divided up into different main types based on density. Through the selection of the polymerization conditions, the molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, kinetic chain length, and degree of polymerization are affected. Our F1 Series single-stage compressors are used in applications such as the licensed “Innovene G” process from Ineos for the production of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE). FIMA supplies the ejector boosters and the ethylene compressors for this process.
