What Is Polyethylene (Pe) Moldagem por injeção?
Polietileno (Pe) is a thermoplastic polymer derived from ethylene monomers, celebrated for its versatility, baixo custo, and excellent chemical resistance. Moldagem por injeção is a manufacturing process where molten plastic is injected into a mold cavity, resfriado, and ejected as a finished part. Junto, PE injection molding creates high-quality, consistent components for countless industries.
Definições -chave & Process Overview
| Termo | Definição |
| Polietileno (Pe) | Um leve, flexible thermoplastic with high impact strength and resistance to chemicals/water. |
| Moldagem por injeção | A high-volume process: plastic pellets → melted → injected into mold → cooled → demolded. |
| Cavidade do molde | The hollow space in a mold that shapes the final PE part (can be single or multi-cavity for mass production). |
Core Material Properties of PE
PE’s unique properties make it ideal for injection molding. Below are the most critical traits for manufacturers and buyers:
- Densidade: Ranges from 0.910–0.965 g/cm³ (low-density LDPE to high-density HDPE).
- Ponto de fusão: 105–135 ° C. (menor que muitos plásticos, reducing energy costs in molding).
- Resistência química: Impervious to acids, Álcoons, e água (critical for medical and packaging applications).
- Força de impacto: Remains flexible even at low temperatures (ideal for automotive and consumer goods).
Reciclabalidade: Most PE grades are 100% reciclável, alinhando -se com objetivos de sustentabilidade.

The PE Injection Molding Process: Step-by-Step Excellence
Um suave, well-managed process is key to producing high-quality PE parts. Our process follows five core stages, each optimized for PE’s unique properties.
Etapa 1: Preparação do material
- Pellet Selection: Choose the right PE grade (Por exemplo, HDPE para rigidez, LDPE for flexibility) and add aditivos (Estabilizadores UV, corantes, ou retardadores de chama) conforme necessário.
- Secagem: While PE is moisture-resistant, we pre-dry pellets at 60–80°C for 2–4 hours to remove any surface moisture (prevents bubbles in final parts).
- Feeding: Pellets are fed into the injection machine’s hopper, where they move to the heating barrel.
Etapa 2: Mold Design
- Colaboração: Our engineers work with you to design molds that account for PE’s shrinkage rate (1.5–5%, higher than ABS).
- Sistema de resfriamento: Molds include precision cooling channels to ensure uniform cooling (critical for PE’s low melting point).
- Prototype Testing: We 3D-print mold prototypes first to validate design before full production (saves time and cost).
Etapa 3: Setting Injection Parameters
PE’s low viscosity requires careful parameter tuning to avoid defects (Por exemplo, flash or warping). Below are our standard parameters for HDPE (the most common PE grade):
| Parâmetro | Ideal Range for HDPE | Propósito |
| Temperatura do barril | 160–220 ° C. | Ensures PE melts evenly without degradation. |
| Pressão de injeção | 50–120 MPa | Preenche cáries de molde completamente (critical for thin-walled parts). |
| Tempo de resfriamento | 10–30 segundos | Prevents warping; balances speed and quality. |
Etapa 4: Post-Molding Operations
After demolding, parts may undergo:
- Aparar: Removendo o excesso de plástico (clarão) with automated tools.
- Conjunto: Joining parts via welding or adhesives (for complex components).
Inspeção: Final QC checks for dimensional accuracy and surface quality.
Materiais: Choosing the Right PE for Your Project
Not all PE is the same—selecting the right grade ensures your parts meet performance and cost goals. We offer a full range of PE materials, plus recycled options.
Types of PE for Injection Molding
| Tipo de PE | Key Traits | Aplicações comuns |
| Low-Density PE (LDPE) | Flexível, macio, good impact resistance. | Bens de consumo (brinquedos, garrafas apertadas), packaging films. |
| High-Density PE (HDPE) | Rígido, forte, high chemical resistance. | Peças automotivas (tanques de combustível), dispositivos médicos (barris de seringa), embalagem (Caps, contêineres). |
| Linear Low-Density PE (Llde) | Stretchable, resistente à punção, more durable than LDPE. | Agricultural films, flexible packaging (sacos), sports equipment. |
Material Selection Tips
- Prioritize performance: For chemical exposure (Por exemplo, dispositivos médicos), choose HDPE. For flexibility (Por exemplo, brinquedos), pick LDPE.
- Consider cost: LDPE is the most affordable; HDPE costs slightly more but offers better durability.
Embrace sustainability: Nosso recycled PE (rPE) is made from post-consumer waste and meets 80% of the performance of virgin PE—ideal for eco-friendly brands.
Tratamento de superfície: Aprimorando a estética & Funcionalidade
PE’s natural surface is smooth but can be modified to improve appearance, pegada, ou compatibilidade com outros materiais. We offer four core surface treatments:
| Tratamento | Processo | Benefícios |
| Acabamento superficial | Polishing or sandblasting to remove imperfections (Por exemplo, arranhões). | Creates a sleek, visual profissional; improves paint adhesion. |
| Textura | Adicionando padrões (Por exemplo, Matte, com nervuras) to the mold cavity. | Aumenta a aderência (Para ferramentas, alças) or hides fingerprints (bens de consumo). |
| Revestimento | Aplicando uma camada fina (Por exemplo, poliuretano) para a superfície da peça. | Boosts chemical resistance (para peças médicas) or UV protection (outdoor components). |
| Painting/Printing | Spray-painting or pad-printing logos/colors. | Improves branding (Por exemplo, automotive parts with company logos) ou estética (brinquedos). |
