short answer

1 answer

The ability of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) to stretch without breaking makes it ideal for disposable shopping bags because it allows the bags to hold a variety of shapes and sizes of items without tearing. This flexibility ensures that the bags can accommodate varying loads while minimizing the risk of rupture, making them more reliable and convenient for consumers.
