La decisi\u00f3n se determina por el requisito m\u00e1s exigente de la pieza: temperatura de servicio, impacto a baja temperatura, rigidez, claridad o contacto qu\u00edmico. Cada requisito apunta a un subgrado y una banda de MFI espec\u00edficos, no solo \"PE\" o \"PP\".<br>3. C\u00f3mo se diferencian el polietileno y el polipropileno en la ficha t\u00e9cnica<br>4. El polipropileno es m\u00e1s r\u00edgido y resistente al calor; el polietileno es m\u00e1s resistente y soporta mejor el fr\u00edo. El PP tiene un punto de fusi\u00f3n de 165-175 \u00b0C frente a los 105-130 \u00b0C del PE, presenta un m\u00f3dulo de flexi\u00f3n m\u00e1s alto y resiste mejor los disolventes y el agrietamiento por tensi\u00f3n. El PE responde con una tenacidad al impacto que sobrevive hasta aproximadamente -80 \u00b0C, mientras que el homopol\u00edmero de PP se vuelve fr\u00e1gil cerca de 0 \u00b0C.<br>5.

El Izod con entalla del PP va desde un fr\u00e1gil homopol\u00edmero de 21 J\/m hasta un copol\u00edmero de impacto de 747 J\/m, un rango interno de 35 veces que se superpone profundamente en el territorio del PE.<br>26. El nombre de la familia es un punto de partida. El subgrado es la respuesta.<br>27. C\u00f3mo se diferencian los subgrados de PP y PE<br>28. Cada familia se extiende a trav\u00e9s de un rango de propiedades que la etiqueta de la familia oculta, y la elecci\u00f3n del subgrado a menudo decide la pieza m\u00e1s que la l\u00ednea divisoria entre PE y PP. Tres grados de PP y tres grados de PE contienen las variables de decisi\u00f3n reales.<br>29. En el lado del PP, el divisor es el contenido de comon\u00f3mero de etileno:<br>30. Homopol\u00edmero (0% de etileno)<br>31. \u2014 m\u00e1xima rigidez y el punto de fusi\u00f3n m\u00e1s alto, pero una transici\u00f3n v\u00edtrea cerca de 0 \u00b0C lo vuelve fr\u00e1gil en fr\u00edo. Esto es para monofilamento, cinta para bolsas tejidas y trabajo de inyecci\u00f3n r\u00edgido. Un grado de monofilamento homopol\u00edmero como PetroChina T30S se encuentra aqu\u00ed.<br>32. \u2014 intercambia algo de rigidez por claridad, capacidad de sellado por calor y un punto de fusi\u00f3n m\u00e1s bajo. Este es el grado de tuber\u00eda de agua caliente y fr\u00eda PP-R; PetroChina Dushanzi T4401 es la referencia t\u00edpica, con equivalentes de Sinopec en una banda de MFI similar.<br>33. Copol\u00edmero de impacto \/ en bloque (5-15% de etileno)<br>34. \u2014 la fase de caucho lo mantiene resistente a baja temperatura. Las piezas para congelador, automoci\u00f3n e inyecci\u00f3n para servicio en fr\u00edo viven aqu\u00ed.<br>35. En el lado del PE, el divisor es la densidad y el ramificado de la cadena:<br>36. LDPE (0.910-0.940)<br>37. \u2014 muy ramificado, blando, flexible, mala resistencia al agrietamiento por tensi\u00f3n. Pel\u00edcula, bolsas, revestimientos.<br>38. LLDPE (0.915-0.940)<br>39. \u2014 una columna vertebral lineal con ramas cortas proporciona mejor resistencia al desgarro y a la punci\u00f3n, adem\u00e1s de una buena ESCR a la misma densidad. Pel\u00edcula estirable y agr\u00edcola. Un grado como LL0209AA supera al LDPE en punci\u00f3n a pesar de la densidad superpuesta.<br>40. HDPE (0.941-0.970)<br>41. \u2014 muy compacto, el PE m\u00e1s r\u00edgido, excelente resistencia al agrietamiento por tensi\u00f3n. Su m\u00f3dulo de flexi\u00f3n de 174,000 psi es aproximadamente seis veces el de 29,000 psi del LDPE y rivaliza con el PP. Tuber\u00eda a presi\u00f3n (PE100, como TUB121N3000) y moldeo por soplado.<br>42. Los n\u00fameros dentro de la familia demuestran el punto. El HDPE es seis veces m\u00e1s r\u00edgido que el LDPE, y el PP copol\u00edmero de impacto tiene hasta diez veces el impacto con entalla del homopol\u00edmero. Tratar el LLDPE y el LDPE como intercambiables porque ambos son de baja densidad es el error de selecci\u00f3n m\u00e1s com\u00fan aqu\u00ed, y le cuesta a los transformadores de pel\u00edcula fallos reales por punci\u00f3n.<br>43. Elegir polietileno o polipropileno seg\u00fan el requisito principal de la pieza<br>44. Comience con el requisito m\u00e1s exigente de la pieza y deje que seleccione el subgrado. Un requisito gobierna; el resto son restricciones que verifica despu\u00e9s.<br>45. Temperatura de servicio<br>46. \u2014 para servicio de llenado en caliente, vapor o agua caliente, el PP gana rotundamente: homopol\u00edmero para la temperatura de deflexi\u00f3n t\u00e9rmica m\u00e1s alta, o copol\u00edmero aleatorio para tuber\u00eda PP-R. La temperatura m\u00e1xima de operaci\u00f3n del PE alcanza un m\u00e1ximo cerca de 71 \u00b0C (LDPE) a 82 \u00b0C (HDPE), por lo que queda descartado para cualquier cosa caliente.<br>47. Impacto a baja temperatura<br>48. \u2014 esto se aleja del homopol\u00edmero de PP cada vez. Una pieza para congelador o servicio en fr\u00edo necesita PE (HDPE o copol\u00edmero, resistente hasta aproximadamente -80 \u00b0C) o PP copol\u00edmero de impacto, donde el 5-15% de etileno reduce el inicio de fragilidad a -20 \u00b0C o menos. Especificar homopol\u00edmero para una pieza de prueba de ca\u00edda bajo cero es el fallo cl\u00e1sico; aumentar su MFI no lo salvar\u00e1.<br>49. Rigidez y rigidez<br>50. \u2014 HDPE o PP homopol\u00edmero, ambos muy por encima del m\u00f3dulo de flexi\u00f3n de 29,000 psi del LDPE. Si la pieza tambi\u00e9n debe soportar impacto en fr\u00edo, ese conflicto es exactamente la raz\u00f3n por la que existe el copol\u00edmero de impacto.<br>51. Claridad<br>52. \u2014 el PP copol\u00edmero aleatorio es la opci\u00f3n m\u00e1s clara en este conjunto. El HDPE se lee transl\u00facido a lechoso, por lo que pierde en cualquier pieza transparente.<br>53. Contacto qu\u00edmico<br>54. \u2014 el PP tiene una amplia resistencia a disolventes y una resistencia al agrietamiento por tensi\u00f3n muy alta; las estimaciones de la industria sit\u00faan su ESCR aproximadamente 20-100 veces la del HDPE. Eso hace que el PP sea adecuado para el contacto con disolventes y \u00e1cidos agresivos, mientras que el HDPE gana el servicio en tuber\u00edas solo porque los grados PE100 est\u00e1n dise\u00f1ados bimodalmente espec\u00edficamente para aumentar la ESCR.<br>55. El m\u00e9todo de procesamiento establece entonces la banda de MFI \u2014 MFI alto para llenar moldes de inyecci\u00f3n de pared delgada y soplado, MFI bajo para tuber\u00eda y extrusi\u00f3n. Una trampa en el COA: el MFI del PP se mide a 230 \u00b0C\/2.16 kg y el MFI del PE a 190 \u00b0C\/2.16 kg, por lo que los dos n\u00fameros no son directamente comparables entre familias.<br>56. Lea la condici\u00f3n de prueba, no solo el n\u00famero. El MFI solo tampoco le dir\u00e1 si un grado se procesa limpiamente \u2014 necesita la distribuci\u00f3n de peso molecular detr\u00e1s de \u00e9l. Una vez que se establecen la familia y el subgrado, la selecci\u00f3n del grado de PP se reduce a\u00fan m\u00e1s entre<br>57. opciones de homopol\u00edmero, aleatorio e impacto<br>58.

Polypropylene runs stiffer and hotter; polyethylene runs tougher and colder.

One trap on the COA: a PP MFI is measured at 230 \u00b0C\/2.16 kg and a PE MFI at 190 \u00b0C\/2.16 kg, so the two numbers are not directly comparable across families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the test condition, not just the number. MFI alone also won\u2019t tell you whether a grade draws clean \u2014 you need the molecular-weight distribution behind it. Once the family and sub-grade are set, the PP grade-pick narrows further across <a href=\"https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/es\/decide-between-three-main-grades-polypropylene-resin\/\">homopolymer, random, and impact options<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Telling PE from PP at Incoming Inspection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una verificaci\u00f3n de banco de 60 segundos confirma qu\u00e9 resina es realmente un lote recibido, y no comienza con la prueba de flotaci\u00f3n. El PP tiene una densidad de 0.895-0.92 g\/cm\u00b3 y el LDPE\/LLDPE de 0.910-0.940, por lo que ambos flotan en agua. El atajo com\u00fan de \u201cPP flota, PE se hunde\u201d solo separa el HDPE m\u00e1s pesado, que se hunde hacia 0.96, y deja sin resolver una banda de PE de baja densidad frente a PP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1376\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2.png\" alt=\"Verificaci\u00f3n de banco para distinguir polietileno de polipropileno en la inspecci\u00f3n de entrada\" class=\"wp-image-1058\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2.png 1376w, https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2-1024x572.png 1024w, https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2-768x429.png 768w, https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/what-is-the-difference-between-polyethylene-and-polypropylene-2-600x335.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1376px) 100vw, 1376px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El punto de fusi\u00f3n es el separador limpio. El PP funde a 165-175 \u00b0C frente a los 105-130 \u00b0C del PE, una brecha lo suficientemente amplia como para que una lectura con placa caliente o DSC resuelva la decisi\u00f3n por s\u00ed sola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El comportamiento de combusti\u00f3n lo confirma sin instrumentos. El PP arde con un olor a vela de cera con un matiz de aceite de motor sucio, gotea y produce vapor de agua y CO\u2082; el PE huele a cera de parafina limpia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Realice al menos dos de estas pruebas \u2014 cribado de densidad, punto de fusi\u00f3n, combusti\u00f3n \u2014 antes de confiar en el lote. Confirmar la resina y el subgrado a la llegada evita que una sustituci\u00f3n de homopol\u00edmero por copol\u00edmero o de PE por PP llegue a la l\u00ednea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">C\u00f3mo elegir entre polietileno o polipropileno<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Identifique el \u00fanico requisito que la pieza no puede comprometer, y deje que ese requisito elija el subgrado y la banda de MFI antes de comparar familias de materiales. La pregunta de la familia se responde por s\u00ed sola una vez que se sabe si se necesita el calor y la rigidez del PP o la tenacidad en fr\u00edo del PE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La elecci\u00f3n dentro de la familia \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/bastone-petrochem.com\/es\/homopolymer-vs-copolymer\/\">homopol\u00edmero versus copol\u00edmero<\/a>, HDPE versus LLDPE \u2014 normalmente decide la pieza m\u00e1s que la l\u00ednea PE-versus-PP. Ninguna resina es el mejor material; el requisito dominante de la pieza lo es.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El COA le da cuatro n\u00fameros, la hoja de especificaciones le da la ventana, y la aplicaci\u00f3n le dice qu\u00e9 esquina necesita \u2014 una verificaci\u00f3n de punto de fusi\u00f3n y combusti\u00f3n a la llegada lo confirma.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both polyethylene and polypropylene land in your warehouse as off-white pellets with a density near 0.91 and a single MFI on the COA.
