Polyethylene, average Mw ~35,000

Polyethylene, is usually a mixture of similar polymers of ethylene with various values of n.

P 0073 (OTTO) Polyethylene average Mw ~35,000 - used because polyethylene is nonpolar and has a high resistance to solvents. Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA) are feasible if the surface chemistry or charge is modified with plasma activation, flame treatment, or corona treatment.
