Which of the following statements about low density polythene is FALSE ?
- A. It is a poor conductor of electricity
- B. Its synthesis requires dioxygen or a peroxide initiator as a catalyst
- C. It is used in the manufacture of buckets, dust-bins etc.
- D. Its synthesis requires high pressure
Step-by-step solution
Low density polythene (LDPE) is primarily used for flexible items such as plastic bags, films, and containers, not for rigid items like buckets and dustbins, which are typically made from high density polythene (HDPE).
