Polyethylene (PE)
PE is the most widely used polyolefin in the world by volume. Titan Chemicals
produces all three types of PE, namely High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Low
Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), in more than 70 grades in total.
In 2002, Titan Chemicals became the first producer in Asia (excluding
Japan) to be licensed for the metallocene LLDPE (mLLDPE) technology and thus become the
first Asian manufacturer to produce such material outside of Japan.
Currently, Titan Chemicals only produces mLLDPE based on market demand.
Polypropylene (PP)
Titan Chemicals PP plants are configured to manufacture homo-polymer PP, as well
as random co-polymer PP and impact co-polymer PP. Co-polymerization
improves PP's impact resistance and flexibility. Random co-polymers
exhibit higher clarity, good impact resistance and more flexibility.
Impact co-polymers exhibit greater impact strength at lower temperatures and
higher melting points than random co-polymers. Titan Chemicals produces 21
grades of Homo-polymer PP and 20 grades of Random Co-polymer and Impact
Copolymer PP.
