Abstract: Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is a conventionally used polymer and possesses diverse applications in various industries due to its low cost, excellent strength, and numerous mechano-thermal properties. Unfortunately, the deliberate and unconscious release of excess polythene… read more here.
