Take the disposable PE (polyethylene) gloves commonly used in the catering industry as an example. PE material is polyethylene. To be exact, the material used for disposable gloves is called low-density polyethylene (LDPE).

Low density polyethylene (LDPE) is one of the most commonly used polymer materials in our daily life. It is also a kind of plastic. It is widely used in the manufacture of plastic bags, plastic films and milk barrels. At the same time, there is also a very familiar word that has a great relationship with it, that is, white pollution.

In fact, the invention of polyethylene was also an accident. It first appeared in 1898 and was synthesized by Hans von Pechmann, a German chemist, in an experimental accident. Then in 1933, Eric Fawcett and Reginald Gibson of British Imperial Chemical Company also synthesized polyethylene in another experimental accident. In this way, polyethylene, born in the accident, has stepped onto the stage of history. While changing human life, it is also committed to creating "accidents" for human beings.
