_____________ polythene is most prone to stress-cracking ?

Correct answer: A. High density

  • A. High density
  • B. Low density
  • C. Cross-linked
  • D. Linear low density

Explanation

High-density polythene is more prone to environmental stress cracking because its greater crystallinity and stiffness allow cracks to initiate and propagate more readily. Low-density polythene is more flexible and generally resists this failure better.
